Session B

Learn about the development and breeding of Dr. Jim Sproul’s unusual Hulthemia rose hybrids. After more than 15 years working with these unique hybrids, Sproul has developed a series of Hulthemias that have been named the Eyeconic® Roses which offer a unique flower form with a distinguishing central blotch characteristic of these beauties. The early hybrids are relatively maintenance-free in climates of the Western U.S. and Canada, however, Jim continues to work on improvements and is especially working toward more black spot tolerant selections.
