The Swedish Rose Society was founded in 1987. There are nearly 1500 members, many<br />
organized in one of the 12 local groups located from Skåne in the south <strong>to</strong> Medelpad in the north.<br />
The groups have their own program activities and meetings, advertised in Rosenbladet and on the<br />
society homepage. The Swedish Rose Society is also a member of the Nordic Rose Society.<br />
Rosenbladet is issued four times a year, in February, May, August and November. This<br />
journal is the most important membership benefit and is all in colour. Because Sweden is such a long<br />
country with very diverse climatic conditions, the journal aims at giving advice on rose growing <strong>to</strong><br />
members from all parts of the country. For instance, it includes an annual survey sent in by members,<br />
evaluating the health and hardiness of their roses.<br />
In addition, the society organizes conferences, lectures and <strong>to</strong>urs <strong>to</strong> public and private rose<br />
gardens in Sweden and abroad.<br />
The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Swedish Biodiversity Centre, is<br />
responsible for the work related <strong>to</strong> POM, Programme for Diversity of Cultivated Plants. This<br />
programme aims at identifying and preserving cultivated plants in general. The rose project, started<br />
during 2004, aims at identifying and preserving old cultivated roses in Sweden. The Swedish Rose<br />
Society and its members, <strong>to</strong>gether with rose gardens, botanic gardens, museums, etc., take a large<br />
part in this work by identifying and locating cultivated roses that can be of interest for POM.<br />
Fees: 200 SEK per year<br />
