Rose Festival in Wilhelmshaven: over 2000 visitors enchanted!

Over 2000 flower lovers gathered in Wilhelmshaven last weekend to celebrate the annual rose festival. The festival took place in the impressive rosarium, which comes up with over 3000 rose sticks and a variety of rare tree, shrub and perennial species. The event not only attracted garden fans, but also families and individual visitors who were able to enjoy the floral splendor. [NWZONLINE] reports that the festival this year recorded a record number of 32 exhibitors who presented their diverse offers- from jewelry to leather goods to house and garden articles.

The atmosphere in the rosarium, the only one of its kind in northwestern Germany, was unique. The rosarium offers an oasis of relaxation and stands for an ambience that invites visitors to explore the themed gardens designed by Theda Harms-Thiemann. Here over 500 rose varieties bloom, including rarities such as the green primeval rose from China and the Black Rose. In addition, special types such as the handkerchief tree and the Chinese blue bell can be found under the trees. A joint buffet for the exhibitors on Saturday evening provided additional social exchange.

tradition and highlights

Since 2004, the rose festival has established itself as an integral part of garden lovers. A highlight this year was the fashion show of the fashion business "Petersley" from Jever, which met with enthusiastic spectators. The festival attracts many people every year and has developed for an important date in the Wilhelmshaven event calendar.

The Rosarium on Neuengrodener Weg 22C is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and is accessible to visitors by the end of October. The horticultural design is cultivated on a voluntary basis and not only offers a look at wonderful roses, but also a romantic setting for various events in which dogs are welcome on a leash. The best way to get is via Friedenstraße/Neuengrodener Weg.
