The Nashville Rose Society serves all of Middle Tennessee by sharing knowledge and information about our national flower, the rose.
The Nashville Rose Society received the Cheekwood Century Star Award for providing more than 100 hours of volunteer service during 2021. Ron Daniels, Co-President of the Nashville Rose Society, accepted the award on behalf of the NRS members who worked in the Rose Study Garden during 2021.
The Nashville Rose Society members are solely responsible for maintaining the Rose Study Garden.
BGRS invites all Nashville Rose Society members to come and exhibit at the show! Entries may be made from 7-10 am. We are a small show and would love to have exhibitors from NRS!
The theme for the show and artistic rose designs is “Mama Liked the Roses – Remembering Elvis Movies”.
