Mattocks Roses

Mattocks roses first began growing roses in 1875 and have been at the forefront of Rose growing in the UK for over 125 years. For many of these years our customers have been able to visit our rose fields, to view our wonderful blooms and smell their fantastic fragrance. There is no better way to choose the ideal rose for your garden, than to see it in the flesh and breathe in its rich aroma. In 1998 we decided to construct a new rose garden to allow our customers to view the roses, without having to trudge through a muddy field. Three years in the making, the rose garden is designed to show the best attributes of our roses. Please may we extend a very warm welcome to enter, what we hope and believe is our truly superb rose garden and enjoy the roses. Click here to see the Rose Garden location table.

The Rose Garden will allow you to scrutinise the varieties for their suitability in your own garden, as each rose has its own characteristics and they are extremely varied in their nature. You can note their height, width, abundance of flower, true colour of the flower and their impact on the eye, but most of all smell the roses as it is a very personal thing and only you should decide on what is right.

We have set the Garden out in circular rings, to allow you easy access to all the varieties, in an easy and straightforward layout. We have devised a plan of the garden so you can quickly find the variety you are interested in, but we hope you may find other varieties along the way that will catch your eye. The roses in the garden can be purchased form our adjacent Garden Centre.
