I

always end up writing my catalog letter in the shortest days of the year. When you finally have time to read it (and I’m flattering myself in thinking that at least some of you do), we are in the longest days. Such is the nature of the lead time required in writing, designing and printing a paper catalog even in these digital times.

I like these short days, when the low angle of the sun makes long, funhouse shadows on the ground. When it front-lights an old sycamore against a blue sky—I’ve never seen a piece of sculpture more captivating. Driving to work the other day I saw a flock of snow geese underlit by the early sun, turning the birds into a surreal image of flowing silver as they passed overhead. I had a thought: You don’t get these treats during the long days when the sun is high in summer.

My next sight as I continued driving was a dead deer on the shoulder of the road, and my second thought led to a third thought: You never saw dead deer around here when I was a kid 50 years ago. Typical roadkill was, in this general order, dogs, pheasants, possums, frogs, and box turtles. Dogs, like kids these days, spend most of their time indoors; pheasants don’t exist, due to the large fox population; possums are still around, but far fewer in number than back then; frogs and box turtles have been done in by changes in the environment and a rapidly growing population in our formerly rural piece of Pennsylvania. Nowadays you will see the flattened remains of squirrels, deer, and the occasional rabbit—all creatures better suited to the suburbanizing countryside.

for four thoughts): The home landscape in our area has evolved even more than roadkill.

When I was a kid the typical home front yard was comprised of lawn (a lot of lawn), two shade trees (pin oak or honeylocust), one at either end of the house, and a line of yews at the home’s foundation in the front. This three-note song was sung throughout every part of the county, with the occasional grace note of a rhododendron or azalea or spiraea.

We landscaped like we ate back then—meat, potatoes and some iceberg lettuce. Oy . . .

And now you can’t drive more than 300 yards without encountering four species of hydrangea, a tapestry of ornamental grasses, shrub roses, redbud trees, winterberry hollies, sweeps of perennials, native azaleas (!), itea (!!) and even maybe a franklinia (!!!). And that’s just the first 300 yards. Keep driving (or better yet, walking).

All of which brings me back to the catalog. Like roadkill and the landscape, our catalog has evolved. More pages, more genera, more photos, more everything. And now, it’s finally in your hands. Turn the page . . .

All the best,

Someday, when I have more time on my hands, I’m going to do some research on the evolution of roadkill. And this idea led to my fourth and final thought of the drive (I have a 20 minute drive to work, so only have time

I had a second thought as I watched the snow geese: This is a relatively new sight in Southeastern Pennsylvania. I didn’t even know what a snow goose was until we bought a farm on the Eastern shore of Maryland to start a nursery in the late 1980s. In a tumbledown corn crib on the farm were around three dozen packages of Pampers. I asked the farmer we were buying the land from why he had so many Pampers and he said, “Snow goose decoys.” And on cue, a small flock of snow geese flew over.

ur in-house breeding division at Star® Roses and Plants is a team of top-breeders and scientists who apply modern techniques in plant genetics to the development of industry-worthy and consumer-friendly ornamental flowering plants. Focusing mostly on the development of roses and other high-value woody shrubs and perennials, they work under the same roof as the Star® Roses and Plants corporate headquarters in Pennsylvania allowing for year-round collaboration and involvement from all departments. The breeding team supplies a steady pipeline of new varieties to Star® Roses and Plants for evaluation and trials each year.

Our breeders and scientists utilize a variety of techniques including traditional breeding, embryo rescue, mutagenesis and molecular biology to develop hybrid populations for screening and identification of new cultivars for introduction. We regularly collaborate with a team of world-class scientists and access facilities at Ball® Helix to further enhance our abilities to develop varieties.

Furthermore, our in-house breeding division collaborates with breeders and scientists from around the world in seeking solutions to diseases that threaten our industry.

02 | Welc om e

Selections from our in-house breeding division undergo a rigorous multi-region, multi-year trialing program coordinated by the New Products Department at Star® Roses and Plants. The program continually expands as they upgrade and develop more rigorous methods to ensure the excellence of all plants introduced by Star® Roses and Plants. The most successful products launched from this program include The Knock Out® Family of Roses and Drift® Roses.

keys to our success: • Maintaining close relationships with breeders, both professional and amateur.

• National testing in all product classes; once we confirm interest among our internal testing locations, plants are distributed to other nurseries, universities, arboretums and botanic gardens for testing in other regions.

• Careful comparison to existing market offerings, making selections that are distinct improvements over what is available.

Consumers are loyal fans of The Knock Out® Family of Roses as it continues to be the top-selling rose brand. The Drift® Rose Series is gaining traction as a smaller option to The Knock Out® Family of Roses, and with a new look debuting in 2018, we are confident that it will gain the differentiation it needs at retail. Bushel and Berry™ is a new collection of self-pollinating, compact blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. A re-brand in 2017 is helping to give this collection the attention it deserves.

Drift® Roses, a smaller, groundcover-like version of The Knock Out® Family of Roses, are a cross between full-size groundcover roses and miniatures. They retained the toughness, disease resistance and winter hardiness of groundcover roses and inherited the compact, tidy size and repeat-blooming nature of miniatures. Hardy to zone 4, they have superior resistance to rust and black spot. The series offers nine colorful varieties.
