Kentucky Roses David Austin Nursery, Display Garden & Cafe
Welcome to Kentucky Roses, a commercial field-grown rose farm specialising in David Austin roses, with a display garden, nursery & cafe. Run by Kate & Dave Hedges in the historic New England village of Kentucky (NSW Australia) the business caters for the wholesale cut flower industry and local weddings and events.
Kentucky Roses Nursery, Garden & cafe is open every Sunday 10 - 5pm from November 13th 2011 to April 15th 2012, with standard and bush David Austin Roses for sale. Groups can visit by appointment or on days the nursery is open, and enjoy a stroll through the garden to view the various roses.
Cappuccinos, tea, cakes and cold drinks can be purchased for the small cafe at Kentucky Roses (for more extensive eating options nearby we suggest The Kentucky Store licensed cafe and Pinot Restaurant at Eastview Estate for delicious lunches & evening meals with wine).
Kentucky Roses offers visitors the unique experience of being able to view a rose in the garden (it's scent, colour, growth habit etc) - and select their favourites, most of which are available for purchase as a potted rose.
*there is a $5 garden entry fee per person, children free
WE ARE NOW CLOSED UNTIL NOVEMBER 2012
Please feel free to contact us with inquiries, bookings for next year (often a good idea to book larger groups in advance) and inquiries regarding bare rooted roses.
