Dear Rosarians,

The pre-convention tour will be “A Journey of Panda and Roses” starting from April 19th until 24th in Chengdu, Sichuan. The post-convention tour will be a 4-day visit around Shanghai. 12 speakers from around the world will talk about species roses and heritage roses. We look forward to seeing you in China in 2026.
