Roses appeared in the middle of the 17th century in the gardens of the Tsar Mikhail<br />

Fedorovitch, and until the 19th century they were only grown in the gardens of the nobility.<br />

Roses became widespread in the 20th century. First orchards that specialized in industrial<br />

rose cultivation were established. Large collections of roses were created in the main botanic<br />

garden of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow and in the Nikitskiy botanic garden<br />

in the USSR period. New cultivars were created and technology for the advancement of rose<br />

culture in northern regions was developed in the institutes of scientific research.<br />

Unfortunately due <strong>to</strong> limited financing for such scientific work, the development of new<br />

Russian cultivars fell behind much of the rest of the world. But it is our hope <strong>to</strong> now<br />

establish rose gardens and bring the newest roses <strong>to</strong> people in Russia.<br />

The Russian Association of Rosarians was established under the auspices of the<br />

World Federation of Rose Societies, led by WFRS President Gérald Meylan. Russia joined<br />

the WFRS on May 7, 2007 and the Russian Association of Rosarians became its 37th<br />

member.<br />

The Russian Association of Rosarians was established as a non-commercial<br />

organization. It has its own rose orchard and plans <strong>to</strong> hold rose competitions in the near<br />

future. The majority of its members are enthusiastic amateur rosarians, both those who are<br />

beginners and those who have been cultivating roses for a long time. They want <strong>to</strong> broaden<br />

their knowledge of roses and <strong>to</strong> know more about the rose novelties in the world.<br />

<strong>Membership</strong> in the Russian Association of Rosarians is open <strong>to</strong> everyone. There is an<br />

annual fee of 1000 rubles.<br />

Members receive the Association bulletin, informational material, brochures, articles,<br />

invitations <strong>to</strong> exhibitions, and access <strong>to</strong> consultations for all rose questions. They also can<br />

take part in trials, seminars and training programs.<br />
