The Salem Rose Society had a grand presence today at the Marion County Fair here in Salem. Our home-grown roses really brightened up the Fair's floral display, as you will see in the photos below. The Fair continues through Sunday, July 15, so the roses will have a lengthy exposure. As a result, we might be able to impress and recruit some new members. Remember, you may click on the photos to enlarge them.
