If you have a passion for
roses, this is for you. The Rose Society is a
group of everyday people who love growing roses or
just admiring them. Most gardeners grow
between 2 and 30 rose bushes, some grow lots more.
If you have roses, would
like to grow roses, would like to show them, or just
attend some meetings to look at beautiful displays
and hear interesting speakers, then come along and
meet us. We have many low cost social events for
members. There is a demonstration on how to
prune roses at the end of June each year. We
visit beautiful private gardens of Rose Society
members that never open to the general public.
Why not come
along to the Queensland Rose Society’s and the
Floral Art Society of Queensland’s combined Autumn
Show. The Show will be held on the weekend of
21st-22nd May 2022. You will love the sight and
scent of hundreds of colourful, fragrant blooms, all
in one location. Throughout the show, there will be
friendly and experienced rose growers from the
Queensland Rose Society, on hand, to answer your
questions and give advice about the best roses to
grow in Queensland and how to care for them. This
will be a great opportunity to view a wide variety
of roses and decide which ones you like best. There
will be cut roses, potted roses and gardening
products for sale, as well as a variety of ‘rosy
items’ and refreshments. Perfect gifts for everyone.
