Entries for the NRTGA 2023 rose trial are now being called for.
This is a two-year trial for all cultivars except climbers, which are trialed for three years. Rules and Conditions of the trial are available on their website: http://www.nationalrosetrialgarden.net.au/rules-conditions/
There have been no changes to the application form or costing since last year. ($160.00 per entry).
Entries will be required before June 16, 2023, to enable codes, etc., to be allocated and forwarded to you with bed numbers for labeling the roses.
Planting at this stage is scheduled for the middle of July this year, so all plants will need to be received by early July. When I forward your code numbers etc., the mailing address for your plants will be included together with confirmed final dates to enable planting to be carried out on time.
The roses (excepting climbers, ramblers & pillars) entered in 2023 will have their final assessments in 2025. The awards presentation for these roses will be held in October 2025.
