2021 trends we want to bring into the new year By Katie Laughridge There is nothing quite like the start of a new chapter to reflect on days (and styles) past. Each year brings such breathtaking trends that it seems a shame to leave them all behind. Now don’t get me wrong, there are quite a few things I would like to leave in 2021 as we begin a fresh and exciting 2022, but I can’t help but reflect on a few items I hope to bring with me as well.
2021 saw a revival of polka dots and all things spotted. Provided photo/TNS
Colored glassware Colored glass more recently had its heyday in the 1950s and ‘60s when it was brought into homes in a big way. However, I would classify colored glass as a newly returned trend, and I for one am tickled pink. The colors have been revamped to include softer pastel shades, beautiful jewel tones and modern shapes that are as exciting to look at as they are to use. As a new traditionalist (and someone who believes in the “more is more” decor mantra), I am all for another way to bring a pop of color and excitement to my home. Colored glass is a jewel on your table and in your cabinet. When you are done elevating your tabletops, colorful glassware is the perfect addition to a glass or open-door cabinet display. Don’t worry if you can’t decide on one color for your home. Mixing and matching is not only accepted, but strongly encouraged.

2021 TRENDS
Continued from page 4 I hope to explore these trends much more in the coming year, and add in a few new ones to the mix! I’m sensing 2022 will have its own share of exciting home fashions for us to enjoy and with which to experiment, so stay tuned!
Spots and polka dots I loved the revival of polka dots and all things spotted in 2021. There was no shortage of this beloved pattern and its variations to play with. From the sweet and delicate dotted Swiss to the bold and graphic oversized polka dots and everything in between, there is a dot for you no matter your aesthetic. Whether perfectly spaced and proper or organically tossed around, spots and polka dots have a light and cheery disposition. We loved them on everything from upholstery to lamps to tabletop accessories for a much-needed spot of fun for our homes.
Menswear-inspired decor As a lover of textiles, when I think menswear I immediately picture fabrics I would find in a refined haberdashery. Inspired by men’s classic suit styles, any material from pinstripes to plaid or herringbone to houndstooth can be used to bring masculine charm to a space. Tweed, plaid, leather and argyle are another few I can’t seem to get enough of for everything from upholstery to window treatments to accent pillows. My absolute favorite touch? A leather welt or cording whenever we can sneak one in! When it comes to rich and elegantly manly colors, I am drawn to dreamy green, lush navy, luxurious camel, deep gray, tobacco brown and oxblood red. I picture a posh, suave suit with all the trimmings and then bring those hues into my home (and office) spaces. Complementary materials to add can range from faux bone and horn to tortoiseshell, or really anything you could find in a cuff link. Adding impeccably tailored touches such as metal studs, pin-tucks and velvet trimming to your upholstery gives the sharp and polished look of menswear to your furniture and overall spaces.

A note from the SBAOR President
HOA Homefront
Tips Before Starting Major Repairs
By Bob Walsmith, Jr. President of the Santa Barbara Association of REALTORS®
Selling Your First Home 101
By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. CCAL
One of the greatest challenges HOAs periodically face is major reconstruction. Whether a new roof, balcony rehabilitation, or other major repairs, the typical volunteer board and professional manager are not regularly involved in hiring for such work. Therefore, many potential pitfalls can contribute to extra costs or risk. Before sending the contract to legal counsel for review, consider these 12 planning tips. WHAT does the HOA need? HOAs often ask bidders to recommend the association’s “scope of work,” meaning the description of the work, and “specifications,” the specific materials to be used. While contractors usually prepare proposed scopes of work and specifications without charge, if multiple bidders are involved it is critical that there be a consistent scope and specifications or the bids can’t be properly compared to each other. Consultants. Qualified consultants can advise the HOA regarding scopes of work and specifications, the form of the contract arrangement, bid evaluation, and responding to contractor requests for extra money. Such consultants typically charge by the hour and act as the HOA’s customer advocate during the project. Many HOAs would benefit greatly from such help. What kind of contract price? A fixed-price bid is only one type of payment arrangement. Depending upon the circumstances, a contractor might be hired on a “cost-plus” basis, in which the actual costs of the work are marked up by an agreed percentage. Another type of arrangement is “time and materials,” in which the contractor charges an hourly rate for their labor and is reimbursed for the cost of the materials provided (with or without a markup). Lowest bid? The cost of a project involving risks of substantial hidden dam-
age (dry rot or termite, for example) may be very difficult for contractors to estimate and could drive up the bid price. In that situation a “cost-plus” arrangement might prove better for both sides, since the contractor is not locked into a fixed price and so would not need to pad their price for protection against further complications. Payment schedule. Contractors often propose payment schedules based upon percentage of completion. However, how does the HOA know if the quoted percentages are accurate during the ongoing project? Seek more definite payment signposts than percentage of completion. Test project. In projects involving repetitive work such as decks or balconies,, paying the contractor on a cost-plus basis for the first location may enable a solid fixed unit price for the other locations. Licenses – mandatory. Disqualify contractors without the right license for the job, or if their license number doesn’t match their business name. Check licenses at www.cslb.ca.gov. Financing. If a bank loan or special assessment is the source of the funds, be careful about signing a repair contract before the money is in hand. Project budget. Consider other costs of the project, including a contingency line item in the HOA’s budget. Quality control. Spending more money up front for the consultant to spot check the contractor’s work may save money and headaches in the long run. Other planning considerations. What will be the hours of work allowed? Is a place needed for storage of materials? How will residents be advised of work starting on their building or street? “Measure twice… and cut once,” is the old construction saying. Good advance planning is always better than undoing mistakes.

In last week’s article, I wrote about a checklist for First Time Home Buyers. This week, in the spirit of fairness, I will write about what First Time Home Sellers should do to prepare. You love and cherish your home. You want the next owner to fall in love with it too — through photos, through words, and through the experience of walking through your front door. But, perhaps most, you want to get the price you want. Selling a home requires work. It requires time. The journey isn’t always easy. There will be frustrations. But when you seal the deal and move on to your next chapter, it sure feels good! Below, I will discuss each step in your journey. How to know what you want (and what your partner wants, if you’re selling together), how to understand the market, and ways to make a plan. Know Exactly What You Want First things first: You need to know what you want (and what your partner wants) in order to sell your home with minimum frustration. Why are you moving? What do you expect from the process? When, exactly, should you put that For Sale sign in the yard? Do Your Research Unless you bought your home last week, the housing market has changed since you became a homeowner. Mortgage rates fluctuate, inventory shifts over time — these are just a few of the factors that affect the state of the market, and every market is unique. Educate yourself on what to expect. Interview and Select an Agent This is the most important relationship you’ll form on your home selling journey (as it is for the home buyer as well). Pick the right agent and you’ll likely get a better sales price for your house and it will be less stressful. Hopefully, the Realtor who sold you the home in the first place is still around and in business, has stayed in touch with you, perhaps has become a friend and an important ally when it comes to suggestions for vendors, and is keeping you up to date on the latest home values, etc. Price Your Home How much is your home worth? That’s the … $1,000,000+ question. Whatever the number, you need to know it. This again is an area that you will need to rely on your Realtor. Pricing your home too high will result in fewer people coming to see it, let alone making an offer on it. There is nothing worse than having a home priced too high, and then having to
go through a price reduction, sometimes more than one. Prep Your Home for Sale Today, home buyers have unfettered access to property listings online, so you have to make a great first impression — on the internet and in person. That means you’ll have to declutter all the stuff you’ve accumulated over the years, make any necessary repairs, and get your home in pristine condition. Often times your home won’t need a major staging operation, but just an expert’s touch to make it look its best. This, again, is where your Realtor can help. They can bring in a professional stager to make subtle, but very important suggestions. Market Your Home Home buyers look at countless listings online. The best-marketed homes have beautiful photos and compelling property descriptions, so they can get likes — which can amount to buyer interest — on social media. Agents may also use videos, virtual tours, texts, and audio messages. It’s time to consider how to promote your property. Your Realtor might also conduct open houses that will attract would be buyers. A great Realtor will often think of marketing ideas that are ‘outside the box’ to make your home stand out. Showcase Your Home Your agent will help you get your home in show-ready condition, emphasizing its assets and helping buyers envision themselves there. In today’s environment, your agent might disinfect your home before and after a showing to ensure that you and any visitors are safe. To help keep sellers safe, agents are also using virtual showings, relying on Zoom or Facetime to walk a buyer through your home. Receive Offers Yes, you might get offers (plural) depending on your market. Assuming you’ve collaborated with your agent, you’ve likely positioned yourself to receive attractive bids. Your agent will review each offer with you to determine which is best for you. The highest price may not always be the best offer. There are other considerations such as cash vs. financing, the possibility of waiving contingencies, shortening the escrow period, etc. Negotiate With the Buyer To get the best deal for you, you’ll likely have to do some negotiating. Your agent will help you craft a strategic counteroffer to the buyer’s offer, factoring in not only money, but contingencies, etc. Negotiate Home Inspection Repairs Ah, the home inspection. It’s as much

Design Recipes:
Renovation do’s and don’ts By Cathy Hobbs
It’s that time of the year when many homeowners are considering renovating. While sprucing up your home can be exciting, here are some suggestions for prudent ways to approach a renovation, regardless of size.
Do’s • Do obtain multiple bids. Regardless of whether it’s love at first sight, having multiple bids may help provide peace of mind, knowing that you didn’t overpay for your renovation. • Do ask for previous samples of work or references. This will help ensure that your hired professional has executed similar renovation projects. • Do have inspiration images and overall design direction. There is nothing worse than flying blind on a renovation project.
A studio renovation project mid-construction.
Don’t’s • Don’t purchase your materials once your project has commenced. Instead try to have fixtures, appliances, etc., preordered to avoid delays in your project, which will likely increase cost. • Don’t submit change orders, or try to submit as few as possible. Many contractors charge fees relating to changing work orders. • Don’t micromanage. While it is prudent to be on top of your project, it may be counterproductive to be overly involved.

When it comes to resolutions, don’t forget your home
SBAOR PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Continued from page 8 a source of anxiety for buyers as it is for sellers. Nonetheless, most purchase agreements are contingent on a home inspection (plus an appraisal, which will be managed by the buyer’s lender). This gives the buyer the ability to inspect the home from top to bottom and request repairs. You always have the option to negotiate any repairs. Once again, your agent will be there to help you effectively communicate with the buyer. Close the Sale Closing, is the last step in the home selling process. This is where you sign the final paperwork, make this whole thing official, and collect your check. Before that can happen though, you’ll have to prepare your home for the buyer’s final walk-through and troubleshoot any last-minute issues.

One of the simplest and least expensive ways to feel better about your home is to purge items that no longer serve a purpose. Photo courtesy Dreamstime/TNS
At the start of a new year, you make resolutions to get in shape, save money, travel or spend more time with family and friends. But what goals do you set for your home? In the spirit of new beginnings, the Spruce has compiled a list of the best home improvement resolutions for the coming year, along with tips on how to stick to them.
Create a long-term plan
Because most home resolutions aren’t something you have to do every day, planning out your tasks ahead of time is one of the best ways to ensure that you stick to your goals. “Make a list, whether monthly or quarterly, of what you need to do to keep an organized home. Then, consult it regularly to check off those tasks,” the Spruce recommends. It’s also a good idea to start thinking about next year’s holiday plans now, while they’re still fresh on your mind. Consider whether you need additional chairs, or if some of your festive essentials have seen better days.
Purge away
One of the simplest and least expensive ways to feel better about your home is to purge items that no longer serve a purpose. But don’t just start ripping open closets and drawers and pulling everything out; instead, take it slow and methodical. SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS
The Spruce recommends that while purging, “make two piles: one for items that you will throw out and one for pieces that you will donate.”
Take it room by room
The start of the year is always about cleaning, but don’t overwhelm yourself by thinking about the big picture. Go through and clean room by room, paying special attention to the areas with the most foot traffic. Scrub, vacuum, rinse and repeat until your home looks brandnew again. Do another deep clean using this method at the start of each new quarter (mid-April, mid-July, and mid-September).
Breathe life with fresh flowers
Fresh flowers for a New Year’s resolution may seem insignificant, but you’ll be surprised at how much impact a variety of fresh flowers can have in your home. And compared to other home renovations, florals are one of REAL ESTATE
the least expensive makeovers you can give a space. The Spruce also adds that “the right plants can do anything from cleaning the air to providing at-home aromatherapy to lift your mood or help you relax.”
Schedule maintenance jobs
Parts of your home need regular maintenance throughout the year. The Spruce notes, for example, that “the air conditioning unit should be inspected before summer begins. Your chimney should be maintained before you light your first fire in the late fall. Gutters need to be cleaned in both the spring and the fall.” Rather than relying on yourself to remember to schedule those handyman appointments throughout the year, sit down and call now. Ask if the appointments can be scheduled months in advance, and then put them on your calendar. Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.

Project planning for a new year By Paul F. P. Pogue In 2022, home improvement contractors are expecting to be busier than ever. With the U.S. labor shortage and supply chain issues still in play as we enter the new year, planning ahead and preparing for your big projects is wise. The further ahead you can get on a contractor’s schedule, the smoother your project is likely to go. Booking early gives you additional time for planning and design and more room for contractors to line up materials and labor. Here’s a rundown of some major home projects and their costs, so you can start planning, budgeting and hiring right now.
Winter: Kitchen remodeling
National average: $13,000-$38,000 Remodeling your kitchen, the heart and hearth of your home, is one of the most rewarding projects a homeowner can take on. It can also be among the most costly and intimidating, so connecting with a reliable kitchen designer and contractor early on is a good idea. As a bonus, it has an excellent return on investment for your resale value. The kitchen is often the home’s social center, so think about how you want it to interact with the rest of the home when you’re entertaining.
Spring: Adding An in-ground pool
National average: $36,000-$66,500 Installing a swimming pool can add luxury like no other addition to your house. Pools offer

many years of enjoyment, and an in-ground model can enhance your home’s value. When hiring a swimming pool installer, take great care to research them and solicit multiple bids. A pool is a significant investment that may take several weeks to install, but if you start in the spring, you’ll be splashing by summer. It’s worth it to take extra time to get the right professional.

Summer: roofing National average: $5,500-$11,600 Early summer is an ideal time to do a roofing job in most climates, since spring rain has stopped and late summer’s heat and humidity haven’t set in. A new roof is one of the most visible and expensive home improvements you can make. You’ll want to carefully select your material choices and contractor, because you’ll be living with this change for decades. Protect your investment by verifying licensing, bonding and insurance, and only hiring vetted local pros. Material cost is the biggest impact on your final price. Slate is the most expensive option, followed by copper, aluminum, and steel. Slate and steel are some of the most robust materials you can buy, while copper and aluminum are long-lasting but easily dented.

Rapid rise in mortgage rates startles homebuyers; blame inflation fears By Susan Tompor All the big unknowns surrounding the rapid jump in inflation — including how high consumer prices will go and how quickly the Fed will raise interest rates — have put the mortgage market on high alert in early 2022. “Rates have gone up rather quickly and there’s still a little upward movement going on,” said Keith Gumbinger, vice president at the mortgage lending information site HSH.com. The 30-year fixed mortgage rate has gone up abruptly in January on concerns that the Federal Reserve could end up raising rates up to four times in 2022, instead of maybe two or three times. The average 30-year rate was 3.08% back in midNovember last year but had shot up to 3.54% by last week, based on Freddie Mac data, according to Gumbinger. And rates have been trending higher the week of Jan. 17. The speed is somewhat startling, but so, too, was the uptick in inflation last year. Gumbinger blames the rapid mortgage rate hikes on the lack of clarity, as well as the lack of experience among today’s bond market investors. “Many investors in today’s markets really have not lived through a spate of inflation like this,” Gumbinger said. The consumer price index jumped by 7% in December for the country from a year ago — reaching a nearly 40-year high. It was the largest 12-month spike since June 1982. The regional CPI rose to 7.5% in December from a year ago in the Midwest, including Michigan. That was the highest spike for all regions of the country.
Higher rates hit as inflation warms up
We’re dealing with an economy that’s had to evolve after the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted supply chains, manufacturing, travel and entertainment and other activity for nearly two years. Earlier commentary by the Fed that inflation could be relatively temporary now appears to be wrong, which is driving up concern that the Fed may need to move more aggressively than expected initially. Most economists do not expect the Fed to raise rates in January, but investors will be carefully studying what comments are made and looking for any clues on where the Fed is heading when it comes to putting a lid on inflation. The first rate hike could come as soon as the Fed meeting scheduled for March 15 and March 16.
What’s the reaction so far?
As might be expected, many borrowers are moving to lock in rates now on the expectation that mortgage rates could climb higher, according to Alex Elezaj, chief strategy officer at Pontiac-based United Wholesale Mortgage. “The market is changing very fast,” Elezaj said. While refinancing has slowed down in general for the industry, he said, there continues to be a strong demand from many homeowners who continue to refinance in order to take cash out of their homes as home values have gone up. Some people want that cash now because they’re remodeling their homes or paying down other higher cost debt, he said. The available homes for sale remain limited in many markets, he said, giving homeowners more reason to remodel their existing home and not move elsewhere.
E16
“I think people will continue to tap into the equity,” he said. As for home buyers, Elezaj said, 30-year mortgage rates continue to be available now in the low 3% to mid3% range for those who qualify and shop around. “We do see it trending upward, for sure,” he said. The expectation is that mortgage rates would see a bigger increase in the summer and later this year. Working with a local independent mortgage broker, he said, can help people shop around and discover options for first-time homebuyers, veterans and others. UWM powers a website called FindAMortgageBroker. com. Studying what’s available by just reviewing rates on the internet may not be enough. “You’re not buying a plane ticket saying ‘Give me the best rate from Detroit to Fort Lauderdale’ “ he said. “You just Google it, good luck.” Elezaj expects that the Fed could raise short-term rates three or four times this year, giving homebuyers more reason to do their homework to save money.
How high could mortgage rates go?
As much as people may be shocked by the recent mortgage rate hikes, rates still aren’t anywhere close to historically high levels or even what we’ve seen just a few years ago. The average 30-year rate was 4% nearly three years ago back in May 2019, according to Gumbinger at HSH. com. But the last time borrowers saw 30-year rates routinely in the 5% range was 2011. If you go back to January 1982, when inflation was hot, the average 30-year fixed rate was more than 18%, he said. Amazingly, he said, the low point during the pandemic was back in January 2021 when the average 30-year rate hit 2.65%. “The lowest mortgage rates come in the worst economic climates,” Gumbinger said. Gumbinger said he does not expect rates to shoot up to 4% and stay there in 2022. Instead, he’s expecting that the 30-year rate could peak at around 3.75% or 3.8% this year. But he was surprised by the rapid climb so far. If inflation cools off, mortgage rates could trend somewhat lower, too.
How much could higher rates cost you?
It pays to put your possible payment in perspective, if you’re looking to buy a home. Take, for example, someone who plans to take on a $200,000 mortgage. At 2.65% for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage, the average payment would be — excluding property taxes and private mortgage insurance — around $806 a month. That would add up to nearly $90,134 in total interest over the life of the loan. Go to 3.65% and the monthly payment would increase by nearly $109 a month to a payment of about $915 a month, again just covering the principal and interest cost. The total interest would be nearly $129,371 over the life of the loan. Jump all the way up to 5% for that 30-year fixed rate and the payment would be nearly $1,074 a month. That adds up to around $186,513 in total interest over the life of the loan.
Adjustable rate mortgages take on more risk
gage rate could very well be a better option for many buyers than an adjustable rate product. Even though rates are trending upward, a fixed rate that’s around 3.5% to 4% remains a good deal historically. Shoppers can get a lower rate by opting for an adjustable rate mortgage but experts say it’s best to move cautiously there. When it comes to ARMs, it’s time to “stay away,” said Greg McBride, chief financial analyst for Bankrate.com. “Fixed mortgage rates are still well below 4% and you won’t save that much with an ARM but will put yourself at considerable risk in future years if we end up being in a higher rate environment,” McBride said. The concern is that rates will edge up further in the next few years since we’ve been chugging along at some incredible lows. The average 30-year mortgage rate was 3.73% on Jan. 19, with 0.74 points, according to the mortgage loan website HSH.com. One point is a 1% fee on the loan amount — or $1,000 on a $100,000 mortgage. By paying points, borrowers can obtain a lower mortgage rate and possibly pay less in interest over time if they hold onto that loan for a long period of time. A hybrid 5/1 ARM, which is fixed for the first five years and adjusts each year after that, has an average rate of 2.73% with 0.66 points, according to HSH.com. The 30-year fixed rate is predominantly used by borrowers and has been for many years. Gumbinger said ARMs can still make sense for some if they know they’re going to move in five or six years, such as a young homebuyer or even someone planning to relocate in a few years for retirement. Consumers, though, need to be prepared and set savings on the side if rates do shoot up and the homeowner is unable to move in that expected time frame. Many times first-time homebuyers opt for an adjustable rate mortgage to obtain the lowest monthly payment possible. But they could end up buying more house than they can afford — and put themselves at much greater risk for paying higher rates in the future as interest rates rise. “A fixed rate mortgage is your best gauge of affordability. Don’t use an ARM as a crutch of affordability,” McBride said. Another key warning: Many new ARM products on the market have an ability to adjust payments every six months, rather than just once a year. As rates climb higher, McBride said, you’re going to be hit with higher payments more quickly and more frequently. He noted that the new products are structured to adjust at six-month intervals, rather than 12 months when they begin adjusting. What used to fixed for first five years and adjust every year thereafter is now fixed for the first five years but then would adjust every six months thereafter. Annual and lifetime caps still apply. It’s possible, McBride said, that mortgage rates, which are surging now, ultimately retreat late in 2022 if concerns about an economic slowdown come into play. “The 30-year fixed mortgage could hit 4%,” McBride said, “but it will come back down later this year to around 3.5%. The key is the Fed getting inflation under control.” And that is the key question: How well will the Fed do when it comes to keeping inflation under control?

Pantone’s color of the Year is Very Peri

By Patricia Sheridan A hue of blue is Pantone’s color of the year for 2022. Very Peri (17-3938) is a periwinkle shade that’s easy on the eyes, but represents courage and inventiveness, according to Pantone. The color system calls the new shade of blue “a dynamic periwinkle blue hue with a vivifying violet-red undertone.” “Creating a new color for the first time in the history of our Pantone Color of the Year educational color program reflects the global innovation and transformation taking place,” said Laurie Pressman, vice president of Pantone. “The complexity of this new red-violetinfused blue hue highlights the expansive possibilities that lie before us.” Minneapolis designer Lucy Penfield, whose work has been featured in major shelter magazines, said: “For the artist in all of us, Very Peri is the quintessential reverie, an escape from the everyday. “Soft flowing sheer drapes in Very Peri or a dreamy textured vinyl wall covering with hints of Very Peri iridescence will transport you to new intuitions,” she mused. It is a color that calms and encourages. In these turbulent times, it might be worth investing in a can of Very Peri paint for an accent wall. Its reassuring nature makes it a natural for the bedroom. It adds a pop of color without being domineering, which makes it per-
fect for pairing with patterns. Lisa McMenamin of LSM Interior Design in Peters loves the new color. “I see using it with other softer colors and having Very Peri the statement color. Periwinkle blue has always been a favorite of mine. Think spring!” she said. Consumers will also start to see the color on kitchen appliances, clothing and accessories. “I would treat it as a blue and use it as an accent color paired with a darker navy,” said Pittsburgh designer Katy Popple. “It would be perfect in floral arrangements, decorative accessories and art.” Century Furniture and Huntington House both use Very Peri on upholstered chairs. SmithHonig, a Georgia-based home decor line, is known for designs inspired by the founders’ travels. Visual artist Melanie Honig and designer Kellie Smith incorporate the periwinkle hue in pillows, tassels, wallpaper and more. Uttermost’s Westerly table lamp is 100% Very Periish and is an easy entry point to add a little color to your life. “Very Peri is a symbol of the global zeitgeist of the moment and the transition we are going through,” said Pressman at Pantone. “As we emerge from an intense period of isolation, our notions and standards are changing, and our physical and digital lives have merged in new ways.” Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.

Suñorita rose garners American Rose Society’s Award of Excellence By Norman Winter
Suñorita rose is the American Rose Society winner of the 2022 Award of Excellence and Proven Winners 2022 Rose of the Year one of 14 varieties in the Proven Winners ColorChoice line of roses. Photos courtesy Norman Winter/TNS
The Garden Guy wasn’t stopping to smell the roses, but instead stared in awe at the form of a rosebud. Even though this new rose variety called Suñorita is considered a miniflora, the bud looked like a classic tiny hybrid tea. Then, out of nowhere, as if to confirm my admiration, a butterfly landed on top and proceeded to investigate. Suñorita is the American Rose Society’s 2022 winner of the Award of Excellence. It was 49 years ago that the American Rose Society
took a bold step to form the award to recognize new miniature and miniflora rose varieties of superior quality and marked distinctions. I say bold because in 1973, other classes of roses like the hybrid tea, floribunda and grandiflora were at their pinnacle of popularity. Who could have imagined the impact these new miniature and miniflora varieties would have in the landscape? Fortunately, some astute rosarians and ARS board members had a vision.

Continued from page 21 The Garden Guy served as executive director of the American Rose Society in the early 1990s and fell head over heels for the award program, but even then, I didn’t realize the eventual importance the program would play. Award of Excellence trials are spread across the country, and each rose is evaluated for three years. The name Suñorita tells you its colors. You’ll see yellow and orange with red highlights, and from a distance it looks like a boldly colored spot of goldenpeach in the landscape. This rose will get 36 to 48 inches tall and 36 inches wide. It won this award not only for its nonstop spring through frost blooming, but also for its no-spray disease resistance. Suñorita is the sixth Award of Excellence winner in Proven Winners ColorChoice roses. The others are Oso Easy Petit Pink (2012), Oso Easy Lemon Zest (2016), Oso Easy Peasy (2017), Oso Easy Urban Legend (2018) and Oso Easy Double Pink (2021). Roses need six to eight hours of direct sun each day. Morning sun is essential, but a little afternoon shade is tolerable. Good air movement helps the dew and
rain dry quickly, further enhancing the inherent disease resistance, so space them about 3 to 4 feet apart depending on your variety. Before you plant your roses, get the beds prepared by incorporating 3 to 4 inches of organic matter and tilling to a depth of 8 to 10 inches. The ideal soil pH for roses is between 6 and 6.5. Planting on raised beds further maximizes good drainage. By all means, finish your bed or planting with a good layer of mulch. Feed your roses with a slow-release or controlledrelease fertilizer per formula recommendation. Apply at the start of spring growth and again in midsummer. Prune your Suñorita or Oso Easy roses in late winter to early spring, just before new growth resumes. Typically the roses will triple in size after pruning, so plan on cutting back by two-thirds. If you have already gotten the trembles after seeing Valentine’s displays at the store, just consider Suñorita, or Oso Easy roses. They are like giving flowers, except they bloom all growing season, and then stand ready to do it again next year and the year after.
This Cloudless Sulphur butterfly investigates opportunities on a new bud of Suñorita rose showing off its classic shape.
This spray of Oso Easy Peasy rose, another Award of Excellence Winner, looks as though it was an heirloom rose, but it is disease resistant and tough as nails.

Oso Easy Petit Pink rose was the first Proven Winners ColorChoice rose to win the American rose Society’s Award of Excellence in 2012.
