ABSTRACT: Cultivation of roses in Florida is normally difficult as most cultivars require high maintenance to be vigorous, long-lasting plants. Warm, humid periods are favorable conditions for the development and persistence of insects and diseases that affect rose performance. Periodic applications of pesticides are therefore usually necessary to maintain quality and reduce damage to the plants. Roses planted on well drained, nutritionally poor soils in Florida typically require regular applications of water and high fertilizer amounts that could be leached by heavy rains. Development of rose cultivars has traditionally focused on improving flower characteristics with little emphasis on landscape performance. However, careful selection of cultivars can help reduce maintenance and inputs such as water, fertilizer and pesticides. The objective of this study was to develop recommendations of own-root rose cultivars for central Florida under low maintenance conditions. Plants of eleven Old Garden roses and Modern roses were evaluated in an experiment utilizing a randomized block design with treatments replicated three times. Plants received minimum rates of water and fertilizer and diseases and insects were not controlled. Each plant was pruned once in Feb. 2009 to one third of its size and no grooming or dead-heading was done.

** A New York Times Bestseller ** NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY: Time • The New Yorker • NPR • GQ • Elle • Vulture • Fortune • Boing Boing • The Irish Times • The New York Public Library • The Brooklyn Public Library "A complex, smart and ambitious book that at first reads like a self-help manual, then blossoms into a wide-ranging political manifesto."—Jonah Engel Bromwich, The New York Times Book Review One of President Barack Obama's "Favorite Books of 2019" Porchlight's Personal Development & Human Behavior Book of the Year In a world where addictive technology is designed to buy and sell our attention, and our value is determined by our 24/7 data productivity, it can seem impossible to escape. But in this inspiring field guide to dropping out of the attention economy, artist and critic Jenny Odell shows us how we can still win back our lives. Odell sees our attention as the most precious—and overdrawn—resource we have. And we must actively and continuously choose how we use it. We might not spend it on things that capitalism has deemed important … but once we can start paying a new kind of attention, she writes, we can undertake bolder forms of political action, reimagine humankind’s role in the environment, and arrive at more meaningful understandings of happiness and progress. Far from the simple anti-technology screed, or the back-to-nature meditation we read so often, How to do Nothing is an action plan for thinking outside of capitalist narratives of efficiency and techno-determinism. Provocative, timely, and utterly persuasive, this book will change how you see your place in our world.
