Join us in the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden both today and tomorrow for a long-awaited afternoon spent strolling the paths amid thousands of spring blooms in yellows, pinks, purples, reds, and so much more. The collection positively burst into life over the last couple of days, making a fashionably late entrance just in time for our Rose Garden Celebration!

The stunning Therese Bugnet rose is in full bloom in the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden. Ever wonder about the people for whom your favorite plant species are named? Well, this cultivar is actually named after the sister of the man who introduced it, Georges Bugnet. This Canadian writer and plant aficionado bred this rose to endure harsh winters, making it quite a hardy plant indeed! Our friend Therese here is only one of hundreds of varieties that you can enjoy this weekend at the Rose Garden Celebration!
