Every January the public is invited to the UCR Botanic Gardens to attend the annual Rose Pruning Demonstration, which takes place in one of our Rose Gardens. Botanic Gardens staff, volunteers and local experts demonstrate how to prune hybrid tea, floribunda, miniature roses and climbers, and are eager to answer questions and teach guests how to prune roses.

Come out and learn how to take care of your roses, and you may even win a raffle prize.

Attendees can utilize parking Lot 13 Blue unreserved without a virtual parking permit for this event.
