On Friday, May 9, Prince William and Kate Middleton made an announcement via their official Instagram account letting everyone know about a lovely honor Kate just received!
The Princess of Wales now has a special rose named after her, and it couldn’t be more fitting. The couple captioned the post with:
“Spending time in nature has always been a source of comfort and strength. Gardens and green spaces provide not only beauty and joy, but also vital support for our mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing.”

The caption continues:
“Today the Royal Horticultural Society are announcing a new Rose, ‘Catherine’s Rose,’ grown by Harkness Roses. The proceeds from this rose will support The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, helping patients across the country live well with, and beyond, cancer 🌹”
The rose is just gorgeous, and royal fans are over-the-moon about the news.
Harkness Roses immediately chimed in with, “We are proud to be the growers of this beautiful rose and to have named it for the Princess of Wales 🌹”

Another person declared, “It’s stunning. Just like the Princess of Wales. 🌹❤️”
More accolades included, “I couldn’t have come up with a better way of celebrating Princess Catherine’s relentless work to support and highlight great charitable causes 👏❤️”
“This is so beautiful! We’re so proud of you, Catherine 💐💖”
“A symbol of hope & strength… Grown in honour of a princess whose grace continues to inspire… Carries a message of comfort in every petal… A reminder that love can bloom even in the hardest times✨️”
This is such a wonderful way to honor someone who’s a symbol of hope, strength, and beauty for her country, and for the entire world for that matter.
Congrats to the future queen on “Catherine’s Rose!“
