Forming the Western entrance to the Morwell Central Business District, is the spectacular Morwell Rose Garden - one of the foremost in country Victoria.

Gravel paths lead through a picturesque arrangement of garden structures - enhanced with 2000 rose bushes flourishing in two and a half acres of parkland.

There are over 200 varieties of roses displaying individual colours. The delicate aroma of these blooms further enhance the beauty of the garden.

Careful selection has been made ensuring masses of colour and contrast. Varieties include traditional favourites and the latest new releases. The Garden contains hybrid teas, miniatures, floribundas, climbers, pillars, weepers, heritage, old-fashioned, Australian-raised "David Austin" roses, ground cover and oddities.

A specialised Australian - New Zealand section was planted out in 1994.

Apart from the feature beds, each bed is planted with a single variety of rose resulting in massed display of colour.

A garden guaranteed to delight all visitors. It never closes!

This Rose Garden is an outstanding example of what a community can achieve with dedication and hard work. The garden started with a gem of an idea from a local councillor back in 1991, who sold the concept to the Council of the day. A site was selected and a public meeting called in December 1991. From that meeting a Steering Committee was formed. This committee has been totally responsible for the project comprising the design, fund raising, construction and on-going maintenance of the garden.

The Morwell Chamber of Commerce strongly supported the Rose Garden project, providing the committee with funds to assist in the initiation of the project.

The Garden was officially opened in November 1992.

A sunken garden featuring an impressive arbour commenced construction in April 1995.

The community and Council supported the project very enthusiastically, as evidenced by the levels of donations and assistance given.

Special recognition for the assistance from the Rose Society of Victoria, particularly its President, Barry Johnson, who has had the responsibility for the garden bed layout design and selection of rose varieties.

A very dedicated support group, "The friends of the Garden’, assist with care and on-going maintenance of the roses.

The Morwell Office of Corrections contribution for their support in the construction and on-going maintenance has been invaluable.
