Honoring a Legacy: The Vic Robite Rose Garden at Ogden Botanical Gardens


Mark your calendars for a momentous occasion at Ogden Botanical Gardens on June 6th, 2024! It's a day of celebration and gratitude as we dedicate the finest rose garden to one of our most cherished volunteers, Vic Robite. For over three decades, Vic has been a steadfast presence, dedicating his time, passion, and expertise to cultivating the beauty of our gardens and enriching the lives of all who visit.

As we gather to dedicate the Vic Robite Rose Garden, we honor not only his lifetime achievements but also his immeasurable contributions to our community. Through his unwavering dedication and tireless efforts, Vic has transformed the Ogden Botanical Gardens into a haven of natural splendor, where the fragrance of roses perfumes the air and the beauty of nature uplifts the spirit.

Vic's love for roses has been the driving force behind the creation of this extraordinary garden. With meticulous care and attention to detail, he has curated a breathtaking collection of roses that dazzle the senses with their vibrant colors and intoxicating scents. From delicate tea roses to majestic climbers, each variety has been carefully selected to thrive in our local climate, ensuring a spectacle of blooms throughout the growing season.

But Vic's legacy extends far beyond the petals and thorns of the roses he has tended so lovingly. His passion for gardening has inspired countless others to take up trowels and gloves, nurturing their own connections to the natural world and fostering a deeper appreciation for the beauty that surrounds us.
