The latest issue of the Weekend Gardener magazine features Hawkes Bay gardener Georgina Campbell and her thoughts on growing roses organically without the use of sprays. Her garden features over 2000 varieties of all types interplanted with other flowering plants. In the last two years, Georgina has been establishing a collection of roses from the McGredy rose breeding dynasty, including Dr Sam McGredy who moved to New Zealand from Ireland in 1972 and who is widely regarded as one of the best rose breeders in the world.
