The beautiful roses at the Victoria State Rose Garden are a popular attraction in Wyndham.
The Werribee South garden, which is home to more than 5000 roses, was officially opened during November 1986.
Nowadays, the garden is managed by Parks Victoria and the Victoria State Rose Garden Supporters Inc, a group of volunteers who are responsible tasks such as pruning, dead-heading, planting, weeding and mulching.
In 2003, the World Federation Of Rose Societies granted the Victoria State Rose Garden a ‘Garden of Excellence’ status.
Entry to the rose garden is usually free for members of the public, although a gold coin donation is appreciated.
Volunteers use the money donated to buy new roses and garden supplies.
