‘Time to Shine’ is the official rose of the 2025 Portland Rose Festival. It’s a stunning yellow-gold grandiflora rose, accented with vibrant magenta hues, and promises to be a captivating addition to any garden with its strong, fruity fragrance and exceptional disease resistance.
Portland Nursery, a retail garden center with two locations in Portland, will donate $2 from every ‘Time to Shine’ rose bush sold to the Portland Rose Festival Foundation. The contributions will help fund cultural events, educational programs, and outreach initiatives that celebrate and enrich the vibrant spirit of Portland.
“The Rose Festival is honored that Portland Nursery is continuing the tradition of naming an official Rose Festival rose,” said Marilyn Clint, CEO of the Portland Rose Festival Foundation. “By offering ‘Time to Shine’ as our official festival rose, the nursery not only provides gardeners with a beautiful, resilient plant but also plays a key role in sustaining the community events that make the festival so special.”
The ‘Time to Shine’ rose is now available for purchase exclusively at Portland Nursery locations.
