The summer issue of GardenMaking is set to hit newsstands on May 13th, 2013.

“Roses tug at a gardener’s heartstrings, but they can bring heartbreak if they don’t survive our winters,” said editor Beckie Fox. “Our feature describes 43 Canadian-bred roses that are as beautiful as they are dependable.” 

But Beckie points out… "And if roses aren’t your passion, there are plenty of other plant temptations in the summer issue: easygoing container plants; tall, slim trees for small spaces; and excellent eggplants.”
