The San Jose Heritage Rose Garden (HRG) is a unique collection of 3,600 antique and modern roses. Established in 1995 through an extensive community effort, the garden contains 2,600 varieties, more varieties than any other rose garden in the Western Hemisphere. The garden is open daily from dawn to dusk and there is no admission charge.

Free pruning lessons will start on 1/5/2021, sign-in at 8:30am and lesson at 8:45am.

The HRG is maintained primarily by volunteers; projects vary with the time of the year. Contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Sarah, at volunteer@grpg.org for information regarding volunteer opportunities at this time.
