Raising of the Roses 2024

The public is invited to join the City of Duluth Parks and Recreation staff and the Lake Superior Rose Society in the annual Raising of the Roses at the Rose Garden. This open house-style community event will allow participants to learn from expert rose raisers about the Minnesota Tip Method, a process that protects tender roses from the harsh conditions of a typical Duluth winter. Rose Raising is an all ages, no experience needed event. Groups, families, and individuals are invited to participate. If you are interested in participating, please arrive anytime during active event hours at the Rose Garden, located between 12th and 13th Avenues East on London Road. On-street parking and the parking lot east of the Rose Garden will be available. Dress for the weather. All tools and supplies will be provided, including work gloves.
