Princess Kate Has Now Received the Same Special Honor as Prince George, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte

Kate Middleton has fought through a challenging period after being diagnosed with cancer in March 2024—and now she's being honored with a very special tribute that gives back to other cancer patients. When Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis were born, they all had flowers named after them, and now their mom is following in their footsteps with a stunning rose that bears her name. On Friday, May 9, Kensington Palace announced that the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) has named a rose—bred by Harkness Roses—for the Princess of Wales. The beautiful coral-pink flower has been created "to celebrate the incredible healing power of nature," as the princess has brought attention to throughout her cancer battle. Per the palace, "Catherine's Rose" will "raise awareness of the important role that spending time outdoors plays in bringing us joy and supporting our mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing." Crucially, proceeds from sales of the flower will benefit the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, as the princess received her treatments at the Royal Marsden Hospital. Kensington Palace announced that sales will help fund a "specialist prehabilitation and rehabilitation program" that "will help to ensure patients who need intensive support live well with, and beyond, cancer." Catherine's Rose is available for pre-order via and and will be shipped in November. Unfortunately for international royal fans, neither site delivers outside of the U.K. Although this is the first flower specifically created in honor of the princess, she did have a white rose released to celebrate her royal wedding to Prince William in 2011 called the "William and Catherine Rose." The Princess of Wales's new rose follows in the footsteps of many other members of the Royal Family who have flowers named after them. A special pale pink rose was bred to commemorate Queen Elizabeth's accession to the throne, while the late Prince Philip was posthumously honored with the Duke of Edinburgh rose ahead of what would've been his 100th birthday. Princess Diana was also remembered with her own special pink and white rose in 1998, a year after her tragic death. As for Kate's children, the "Princess Charlotte Chrysanthemum" was debuted ahead of Charlotte's first birthday. Prince George has the "Georgie Boy Daffodil" named in his honor, and in 2018, adorable Prince Louis was given his own flower, the vivid purple "Clematis Prince Louis."

RHS announces new rose named after Princess Kate

The Princess of Wales has received a new honour after completing her cancer treatment. A rose has been named after her to highlight the healing power that nature can have. The flower, Catherine's Rose, has been named by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS). Funds from its sale will go towards The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. Kate underwent a course of preventative chemotherapy after being diagnosed with cancer in March 2024. In September, she announced she had completed her treatment, and in January 2025, she revealed she was in remission. Catherine's Rose is a floribunda variety, bred by Harkness Roses. It has coral-pink petals and is said to smell like mango and Turkish Delight. The RHS said it will thrive in a mixed border, as a hedge, in a large container or in a rose bed. 'As well as supporting the incredible work of The Royal Marsden, Catherine's Rose will raise awareness of how nature and gardening can help to heal,' RHS director general Clare Matterson said. 'We know how important this message is as every day we see how accessing nature and being outside is vital for our health and happiness. 'Crucially too, Harkness Roses has done a wonderful job breeding this spectacular rose that is going to bring so much joy to all our nation's gardeners and keep our precious pollinators buzzing too. It's a really special rose.' Dame Cally Palmer, chief executive of The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, said: 'As a specialist cancer centre, The Royal Marsden's mission is to ensure every patient has the care and support they need to achieve the best outcome and patient experience. 'Every rose sold will help The Royal Marsden establish a unique training programme for clinical teams across the country in prehabilitation and rehabilitation techniques which make such a difference to patient care.' The roses will be available to purchase on and from Friday, with a bare root rose costing £29.99 and a potted plant priced at £34.99. There will be 15,000 Catherine's Rose available in 2025 and for every plant sold, £5 will be donated to The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.
