Pacific Rose Bowl Festival, 14-17th Nov
During November the Rogers Rose Garden is the prettiest jewel in the Hamilton Gardens. The garden tells the story of the development of the modern rose through a series of gardens including the New Zealand Rose of the Year Trial beds.
The Pacific Rose Bowl Festival showcases the Rogers Rose Garden for 4 days, while gathering public votes to award the winners of the 2019 New Zealand Rose of the Year.
Your vote counts. Simply choose your 5 favourite roses.
By voting for your favourite roses you could win your very own New Zealand Rose of the Year rose bush. There's a winner every day, plus the children win a gardening voucher for their school. See some past winners from 2011-2014 below.
You be the judge!
