The Rose Capital of Luxembourg: Walferdange

This elegant flower composition has been decorating in July one of the bridges in Walferdange, Luxembourg. 💐

The small town is known as the “City of Roses” because of its long tradition of rose cultivation and production. 🌹

Walferdange has been growing roses since the 19th century, when the first rose nursery was established by Jean-Baptiste Lamesch. He was a pioneer in creating new varieties of roses, and he won many awards and honors for his work. He also founded the Luxembourg Rose Society in 1896, which still exists today.

Today, Walferdange has several rose nurseries and gardens that produce and sell roses of different colors, shapes, and fragrances.
