This week Kevin meets with world renowned rose hybridizer Tom Carruth who has created more than 100 rose varieties and is currently the Curator of the Rose Collections at the Huntington Library. Tom shares what it takes to hybridize and market roses as well as find and grow varieties that connect with you.

Tom Carruth is a cherished member of our horticultural community. A GoFundMe fundraiser for Tom is being organized by Beverly Rose Hopper of Jackson CA, along with friends in the rose community and beyond. Tom has given so much beauty. Sadly, now he has lost almost everything in the Eaton fire. If you are interested in supporting Tom in his time of need, you can donate here.
