The New York Botanical Garden will host its 25th annual Rose Garden Dinner next Thursday, October 8 at 7 PM in the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden. The Rose Garden Dinner celebrates the autumn flowering of the garden’s prodigious rose collection, which includes nearly 700 varieties. This year, actress Julie Andrews and award-winning garden designer Stephen Scanniello will be the evening’s honorees.

Cocktails will begin at 5:45 in the Rose Garden and dinner will take place at 7 PM in the Garden Terrace Room, with dancing to follow.

All proceeds from the event will go towards building and maintaining the Rose Garden selection and to support the curators who continue to care for and develop what has been named the “Most Outstanding Public Rose Garden Display in America”.

This year, Garden Collage is a proud sponsor of the event. We hope to see you there!

The New York Botanical Garden is located at 2900 Southern Boulevard in the Bronx. Its operation is made possible by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs. Find more information about the dinner and the garden here.
