Lehigh Valley Arts Salon asks if...a rose by any other name would smell as sweet? 

WDIY showcases two Lehigh Valley rose gardens with Marcie Lightwood sharing the story of the 90-year-old Bethlehem Rose Garden, and Karen El-Chaar featuring the Malcolm Gross Rose Garden in Allentown. 

Tune in to Lehigh Valley Arts Salon every Monday from 6:00 to 6:30 PM following All Things Considered.
