Peter Beales Roses Celebrates Third Gold Medal of 2025

Peter Beales Roses Celebrates Third Gold Medal of 2025 at RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival

Hampton Court, UK — 1 July 2025 — Acclaimed British rose specialist Peter Beales Roses is proud to announce the achievement of their third Gold Medal of 2025, awarded at this year’s RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival. This latest accolade follows earlier Gold Medals at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and BBC Gardeners’ World Live, marking a landmark year for the business.

The award-winning stand is a beautifully immersive and educational display showcasing how roses can be both stunning and ecologically enriching. Framed by two rose-covered arches, a peaceful arbour, and a welcoming bench, the display encourages visitors to explore how a rose-filled garden can support and attract wildlife throughout the seasons.

The stand features a carefully selected range of pollinator-friendly rose varieties, known for their open, nectar-rich blooms that provide essential forage for bees, butterflies, and hoverflies. In the centre of the stand is ‘Linda Lee’, a new variety for 2025, which was bred by Peter Beales Roses with pollinators in mind.

A unique feature of the display is the showcase of rose hips in all their variety, highlighting not only their striking visual appeal but also their role as a vital food source for birds and mammals in winter.

Supporting this wildlife-friendly theme are natural-style bug habitats within the borders, a hedgehog house, and water elements designed specifically to support birds, insects, and other garden creatures.

Ian Limmer, Nursery Manager at Peter Beales Roses, said:

“Winning our third gold medal this year — following successes at Chelsea and Gardeners’ World Live — is a fantastic honour. Our wildlife-themed stand reflects a growing interest in sustainable gardening, and we’re proud to show that roses can play a central role in supporting biodiversity.”

You can visit the stand, No. 521 in the Rose Marquee, at RHS Hampton Court Palace all this week, where the friendly team will be on hand to answer all your questions and offer their expert advice, as well as the opportunity to pick up a potted rose at the Peter Beales Roses selling table, located at the rear of the stand.

Based in Attleborough, Norfolk, Peter Beales Roses has been a leader in rose cultivation since 1968, specialising in classic, modern, and wild varieties. Their award-winning displays continue to champion both horticultural beauty and environmental responsibility.
