La rosaleda se estableció a partir de 2009, con una colección donada por el rosalista John Nieuwesteeg, y está administrada por la asociación sin ánimo de lucro "Friends of Maddingley Park".
Originalmente se habilitó el Parque Maddingley para poder comer al aire libre para los visitantes de un día que acudían desde Melbourne para pasar un día al aire libre en el campo, cuando fue inaugurada la estación de ferrocarril en Bacchus Marsh en 1887.
Hay un grupo importante criados o que se encuentran en Australia, incluyendo obtentores rarezas conseguidas por Alister Clark, Olive Fitzhardinge, Frank Riethmuller y Patrick Grant.
[1] Otros son inusuales o únicos en colecciones públicas australianas.
Más rosas suben hasta la base de la propia glorieta.
Sendero en el "Maddingley Park" de circulación norte-oeste de la puerta sur. El Nieuwesteeg Heritage Rose Garden se encuentra detrás del centro del cedro.
