Local Authorities make good use of roses in parks and roadside areas. Below are scenes from some of the more prominent displays.
Coleraine
The Coleraine Rose Garden
has given pleasure to many
since it was created (left) in 1951,
'Festival of Britain' year.
Changed and updated a number of times
in the intervening years, it recently
had a complete make over.
Centrepiece is now the
Phoenix Peace Fountain,
a gift from communities of the
United States of America.

of roses in Moira Demesne
