Awards
Roses are constantly evolving, with breeders striving to combine much loved characteristics from traditional favourites, with new hybrids, to give outstanding performance in a variety of garden situations.
In their quest for the ultimate rose, breeders throughout the world enter their best selections into on-going national and international trials. They are assessed by experts on a range of criteria, such as disease resistance and flower abundance, with the best performers awarded accordingly.
The Gold Standard Roses are a result of a joint initiative between professional rose breeders represented by BARB (British Association of Rose Breeders) and NIAB (National Institute of Agricultural Botany).
