SAVE THE DATE! You'll kick yourself if you miss this special event, a nearly end-of-the-season clematis sale at the garden. Since we have a "Flower Power" class taught by Kathy Whitman that morning (see our website), we decided to tack on a special clematis sale. Sale hours will be 9 am to 2 pm, and there will be sale specials as well as discounts on our 2-gallon clematis. The sale is timed for the height of autumn transplanting season, a great time to get new clematis in the ground. See you there!

Please see the HPSO website for more details.

Please check their website for more details.

Note: Date was changed from Aug. 23 to Aug. 16.

The genus Clematis is part of a large and varied family of plants, the ranunculaceae. “Cousins’ of clematis include hellebores, columbine, wolfsbane, anemones of all types, and a host of other great garden plants. Our curator, Linda Beutler, has been the herbaceous perennials instructor at Clackamas Community College for over 20 years. She delights in drawing attention to the similarities and differences within this beautiful and boisterous family. The presentation will include a wander through the garden.

We apologize that this class has been cancelled. Please check out our other events in the Fall.

Bring your garden indoors and learn basic floral design principles including line, texture, and color, whether using a vase or floral foam. Learn about when and how to cut and condition your flowers. Each participant will take home an arrangement of their own creation. Please bring a bud vase and clipper to trim the flower stems.

FRCC will be hosting a networking event with the Lake Oswego Chamber of Commerce in the Rogerson Clematis Garden,

One of our most popular classes every year. Limited to 15 attendees, this class explains the botany and technique for successful propagation of clematis via soft and semi-hardwood cuttings. All materials are provided. Because we prepare some of the materials for you in advance to save time, we cannot accommodate walk-ins. We will also demonstrate how to divide clematis, easy to do and nearly instant new plants! You will leave the class with cuttings of several varieties of clematis, and the knowledge to create more from your vines at home.

Registration for this class is now closed. Thank you for your interest.

Please join us for our annual Inviting Vines Garden Tour with events to celebrate our twelfth year of fabulous gardens featuring clematis. In addition to the Rogerson Clematis Garden there will be four private gardens for you to visit. 

In addition to the open gardens, special event guests will enjoy either a continental breakfast in the milking parlor of the barn at Luscher Farm while Maurice Horn, owner of Joy Creek Nursery (author, speaker, and founding member of Friends of the Rogerson Clematis Collection), shares his history with Brewster Rogerson and his role in connecting the clematis collection to the brilliant work of Japanese hybridizers.  Or, enjoy the tour and the afternoon tea featuring Judy Alleruzzo and Bill McClenathan of Garden Time TV for an improvisational conversation about their gardening experiences…both good and bad…with clematis in their gardens. If you have time, you may opt for both breakfast with Maurice and tea with Judy and William. There will be lots of clematis to purchase at the Rogerson Clematis Garden and a garden-themed gift basket silent auction benefiting the Garden. Feel free to start your day’s adventure at any of the gardens at 11:00 am if you can’t join us for the special event breakfast.  See you there! Tickets now on sale.
