Thousands of roses will be on show on Saturday October 24, 12-5pm and Sunday October 25, 9-4pm at Jamberoo Municipal Hall.
Chief Steward and club President Robert Curll said there was a lot of local support for this years event.
“Well know horticulturist, Hazel King, will officially open the show, she was one of the first female horticulturist’s and travels overseas to take people around gardens,” Mr Curll said.
“The support from local business and individuals has been very impressive. We couldn’t have the quality of show without them.
“Over the last three or four years, we have become known as the best show in NSW.”
Over 80 classes will be judged on Saturday morning prior to the official opening.
“In class 49C we encourage our member to enter one exhibition rose, we are trying to break last years record, which was 27 entries.
Regular admission is $3 and concession holders $2.
