Seattle Rose Society
Welcome to the Seattle Rose Society
The Seattle Rose Society is a non-profit organization founded in Seattle, Washington in 1913.
We share a love of roses and our goal is to share our knowledge of and enthusiasm for roses with the public.
We promote interest in roses through membership meetings, a monthly newsletter – The Rose Petals, our annual rose show, educational programs, and other community activities.
We are a local chapter of the Pacific Northwest District of the American Rose Society.
