This Botanic Roses pattern has been manufactured since 1972 by the Portmeirion China company, based in England. The Botanic Roses pattern is a spinoff from Portmeirion's extremely popular Botanic garden pattern. Botanic Garden focuses on all types garden plants while Botanic Roses, as it name would imply, is restricted to different types of roses.The design of both these patterns is extremely durable and long lasting due to the special earthenware processes used in its manufacture. Another advantage of this pattern is that it is dishwasher, microwave and freezer safe, so it is convenient as can be. Portmeirion Botanic Roses is not what you would call a formal set, but it is extremely cheery and colorful. Owners of this pattern tend to turn into collectors very quickly once they come to love it and realize how many different pieces of all shapes and sizes have been made and continue to be made in Portmeirion Botanic Roses. And it's very affordable too! This pattern is truly a fresh delight.

Our favorite Portmeirion Botanic Roses  pieces are the dinner plate as well as the oval serving platter.
