Rose of the Year was introduced in 1982 to discover by trials, the best roses in any given year.
Rose breeders are invited to enter what they consider to be the best of their up and coming varieties into the competition; generally 25 to 35 varieties are submitted annually.
Trials are conducted throughout the UK, from as far North as Aberdeen, to Hampshire in the South, Northern Ireland and East Anglia all with different soil and climate conditions. The trials last for a two year period and are judged by both amateur and professionals with the most worthy variety being selected as ‘Rose of the Year'. Selection is 6 years in advance to allow for building up stocks sufficient for the launch at the Hampton Court International Flower Show.
