The Auckland Rose Society Annual Show and Competition will be held this year at the
SELWYN LIBRARY
(Opposite Holy Trinity Cathedral Parnell)
10 St Stephens Ave Parnell
Auckland
20th & 21st of November 2021
Pruning: As a general rule of thumb for those wishing to exhibit it is suggested that pruning is done 90 days prior to the show weekend.
The more people we have exhibiting the better our show will be!
With both Novice and Open Classes there is an opportunity for everyone to
enter roses in the show and to try their hand at exhibiting.
You have grown them- why not show them!!!

The Auckland Rose Society celebrated its 75th Anniversary on Saturday 27th February. A Vintage High Tea was served for guests and members at the Auckland Horticultural Council venue at 956 Great North Road. A huge vote of thanks to the organising committee and friends. The Anniversary Cake was cut by our Patron and our newest member. Thanks also to Kings Plant Barn, Yates and Kiwi Gardener magazine for their ongoing support of the Auckland Rose Society.
We have moved to the new Auckland Horticultural Council venue, 956 Great North Road, Western Springs, Auckland 1022.
We are all looking forward to catching up with you and sharing the love of roses.
Happy gardening.
