2003 The Wohl Rose Park of Jerusalem..........................Jerusalem. Israel
The Wohl Rose Park of Jerusalem is a large municipal public park devoted
to roses and maintained to the highest standards. It covers 19 acres and has a
wide range of rose varieties (about 400 varieties and 15,000 plants.)
Expansive, informal beds dominate the landscape. Probably the only rose
park of its kind in the Middle East, it prospers in a hot Mediterranean
climate where there is no rainfall in summer.
The rose park includes the Garden of Nations, which is made up of sections
donated by countries or communities around the world. Each section has
rose varieties characteristic of or grown in, the respective country. The park
also has an Experimental Section where new varieties of roses are tested for
their suitability for public and private gardens in Israel.
2003 Il Roseto 'Niso Fumagalli' ........................................Monza, Italy
Il Roseto 'Niso Fumagalli is the display garden of the Associazione Italiana
della Rosa. It is also a famous international Trials garden where the
emphasis on perfume is a cardinal factor in judging rose varieties.
In 1964 Niso Fumagalli persuaded the Municipality of Monza to provide the
newly formed Associazione Italiana della Rosa with space for a
"paradisiacal" garden in front of the abandoned Villa Reale, where once
Eugéne de Beauhernais, Empress Josephine's son, had lived as Viceroy of
Italy.
From the outset, Niso Fumagalli insisted on the importance of the garden as
a Trials ground. Because of his belief in the importance of perfume in roses,
the perfume prize, "La Corona della Regina Teodolinda" is the most
important prize awarded at these Monza Trials.
More than just a Trials ground, Il Roseto 'Niso Fumagalli' is also a beautiful
display garden with standards, climbers, pillars, shrub and heritage roses.
