Susan Fox to Wow Visitors with Jackson & Perkins Roses for Every Garden

Chicago Flower & Garden Show ~ Navy Pier, March 14-18, 2018

CHICAGO (March 17, 2018) – Susan Fox, of Gaga’s Garden, Central, Illinois will dazzle visitors on how to choose the perfect Jackson & Perkins rose based on their lifestyle when she attends the Chicago Flower & Garden Show, March 17th at Navy Pier.

The Chicago Flower & Garden Show is an annual harbinger of spring in the Midwest after a long winter. The 2018 show theme, “FLOWERTALES: Every Garden Has a Story to Tell”, interprets the unique role flowers, plants, and gardens play in the stories of our lives.

A new chapter of this legacy event begins with re-designing the show’s traditional nine-day run to five days. The show will run Wednesday, March 14 through Sunday, March 18, with extended daily hours from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The Chicago Flower & Garden Show is one of the country’s top three consumer garden shows and one of its oldest, with roots that date back to 1847 as the Chicago Fruit and Flower Show. It was also one of the first consumer shows ever held at Navy Pier.

Ms. Fox will show visitors how easy to grow roses can be. These darlings of the garden respond quite nicely to a little TLC. She’ll explore this topic with attendees in an interactive and highly visually intense presentation and further discuss what visitors want to achieve in their garden with roses. Today there are so many types of roses to choose from that suit any lifestyle. Ms. Fox plans to explore the exciting, easy care Jackson & Perkins varieties of roses suitable for busy lives that include environmentally friendly and minimal care plants. Remarkably, many gardeners perceive roses as difficult to grow and are hesitant about adding roses to their garden landscapes, Ms. Fox will dispel that myth via education.

Fox claims that a large percentage of gardeners that seek her advice tell her that they want to add roses to their landscape but are hesitant due to either a lack of knowledge about caring for roses or a perception that roses can be ‘persnickety’. Her presentation is about education and matching the right plant to the person’s lifestyle and goals for their garden. She states that today there are roses to choose from that fit any personal style. She plans to explore the methods and easy steps that produce quick and lasting results with these wonders of the garden world.

“People say that roses are their favorite flower and they want them in their garden. Roses have been growing in the wild long before they had to be ‘pampered by people’ so come to the show and let Susan Fox educate you in what’s new in the world of minimal care roses that you can add to your landscape,” says Chicago Flower & Garden Show Director Tony Abruscato.
