The Nashville Rose Society serves all of Middle Tennessee by sharing knowledge and information about our national flower, the rose. Through a monthly newsletter and meetings that feature regional and nationally recognized speakers, we bring you advice and instruction geared to growing roses in the specific soil and climatic conditions of this area.
Your membership will bring you a monthly email alerting you to society events and news as well as information on how to take care of your roses.
The Nashville Rose Society sponsors an annual spring garden tour featuring a selection of members’ gardens in the Middle Tennessee area. Visiting these gardens provides an opportunity to see garden layouts, rose bed construction, and beautiful roses of all types.
The 2025 meetings of the Nashville Rose Society will be held at the Cheekwood Estate and Gardens or at the Ed Jones Auditorium in the Ellington Agriculture Center. The meeting location, dates and times are shown on the Meetings & Events page of the website.
