National Autumn Rose Show 2015

The Waikato Rose Society hosted the 2015 National Autumn Rose Show ‘Shades of Autumn’ from March 13th  -15th at the Hamilton Gardens Pavillion in Hamilton. Rosarians from around the country, particularly those from the upper North Island brought their best blooms to compete in various classes. The convention dinner was held among the roses on Saturday night while a bus trip on Sunday visited Tauranga and included a visit to noted rose breeder Rob Somerfield and miniature/patio rose specialist nursery Prestige Plants.
