Working together to study, foster, and encourage rose culture in every practical way.


We are a community of people from all walks of life united by our love and passion for America’s favorite flower — the Rose.
The New England Rose Society seeks to educate its members and the public in all aspects of rose culture. Whether you are about to plant your very first rose or already have several roses in your garden, you’ll find a wealth of information in our monthly meetings, newsletter, and on-line resources.
You’ll also have the opportunity to exhibit roses in our NERS June Rose Show and enjoy sharing your growing experience with other members.In addition to outstanding guest speakers at each meeting, we offer special seminars for in-depth exploration of rose topics, such as soil chemistry, budding and hybridizing, and pest and disease control. Members receive discounts on roses and garden center merchandise.
