As part of the Centennial celebrations of the Portland Rose Festival, Powell’s Books invited Aurelia Scott to discuss Otherwise Normal People: Inside the Thorny World of Competitive Rose Gardening last Sunday.
After all roses have thorns. I did not realize until I noticed this book that roses could bring out such passion, obsession or what the author describes as Roseaholics.
Kind of a ‘Best in show’ for the flower garden. Will you find it on ESPN extreme sports?
Oh! by the way, this is Portland Oregon.
The Rose Festival runs until June 10 and its highlight is the Grand Floral Parade on June 9.
For a more mellow view: Are you a practicing ‘Zen’ gardener?
