We are proud of our 1288 ARS Certified Consulting Rosarians (CR) across America. 

 

Consulting Rosarians are an important asset to the American Rose Society.  

​

CRs are trained to provide important information on rose culture.  They willingly and enthusiastically share their time and talent with both new and old rosarians.

 

Our CRs are among the most active members of the American Rose Society and our local rose societies.

An ARS certified Consulting Rosarian can help you… An ARS CR can address almost any question about growing roses. 

 

A CR provides basic as well as advanced information to the rosarian. Our motto is to keep the information simple and understandable

 

Anyone can grow roses. The message of CRs is always positive and helpful.

 

You can find one near you by… All local rose societies have trained CRs.
