Educating its customers is also important to Alexandra Farms.
Through the company's 12-part online "Alexandra Farms Certified
Designer Program" (AFCD), developed and taught by Azout and
Holly Heider Chapple (alexandrafarms.com/afcd-program),
participants learn everything they ever wanted to know about
garden roses, from the history to the varieties to the right botanical
and anatomical vocabularies.
