In 2009 a new rose was developed as a permanent reminder of the Bicentenary event and as a ‘lead’ to communicate information about it and Governor Macquarie. The rose was planted in Council’s gardens and by the general public. The Rose Society of NSW supported the idea and a well regarded rose breeder, Trevor Grant, resided in the Hawkesbury LGA. He was willing to be part of the project, providing a rose that was ready for market.  Communication of the bicentenary rose and its proposed name with Swane’s Nurseries, led to it committing to commercialisation and growing up in time for 2010. 

Winners of the 'Governor Macquarie' Rose for the months of January, February and March were presented with their roses at the official launch of the rose on 14 April 2010 by Her Excellency Professor Marie Bashir AC CVO, Governor of New South Wales.
