There will be roses popping up in the Mt Majura Nature reserve as long as Parks and Conservation Service (offset) cultivate wild roses in Justice Robert Hope park opposite of the reserve; the main distributer are foxes eating the fruits and spreading the seeds over large distances. Another cultivation of roses site is the land cornered by Fed Highway and Antill Street in North Watson: there are literally 100s.
