RHS Garden Rosemoor is a public display garden run by the Royal Horticultural Society in north Devon, England.

Rosemoor is about 1 mile (1.6 km) south of Great Torrington on the A3124 road to Exeter. It is surrounded by over 100 acres (40 ha) of woodland with the River Torridge running along the western border.[1] Features include a rose garden with about 2,000 rose plants; an arboretum; herb, fruit and vegetable gardens; and an alpine house.

A variety of clematis introduced as part of the RHS Bicentenary Plant Collection is named after the garden.[2]
