The Fort Worth Rose Society was founded in 1961 by Mr. and Mrs. O.G. Pierson and a local group of people who shared a love for roses. The Society grew over the years to become the premier rose society in North Texas. The Fort Worth Rose Society is an affiliate of the American Rose Society.
The Fort Worth Rose Society holds annual Rose Competitions every May at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden. We currently have six Master and Consulting Rosarians that are part of the Society and available to answer all of your questions about grown roses in your own garden.
