Trevor Griffiths Rose Garden
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Could I suggest that this public garden be given its full title: Trevor Griffiths Rose Garden

An explanatory sign at Trevor Griffiths Rose Garden claims there are now 1200 roses planted. There appear to be very few double-ups. I visited on 11 October 2011 and although there wasn't a solitary rose in bloom, the garden looked an absolute picture with all the fresh spring growth and the immaculate maintenance. I took some photos which I shall post on HMF within a few days. Some of them are shots of individual plants not yet in bloom which I shall post on the individual rose variety pages.

Looking forward to your photos! This gives us a chance to see this far away garden.

I hope to revisit and take more photos in December, when the garden should be in full bloom. Even with no flowers at present, I was enthralled by the beautiful fresh, healthy growth and the variety of foliage from cultivar to cultivar. This garden was established in honour of Mr Trevor Griffiths, who was a noted heritage rosarian. Many of the roses were propagated from cuttings taken from his vast collection of heritage and David Austin roses.
