Nomzamo Mbatha bags the honour of a rose named after her

Nomzamo Mbatha wallows in amazement as she has a rose named after her. The young beauty wasn’t expecting this as this is a surprise. She said, she had never thought of this happening.

Despite not expecting such a surprise she was thankful and said it was a special day for her as lots of people ordered for the rose in her name immediately it was announced. She is indeed an influencer.

She also thanked Ludwig roses for the oportunity and for solidifying her place in a beautiful manner.

The honorary rose she received was alongside former South African president Nelson Mandela, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Walter and Albertina Sisulu— at the opening of the 47^th Spring Rose Festival.

Never in a million years did I ever think I would have a rose named after me or join this caliber of laureates… Yesterday was truly special. Thank you @ludwigsroses for this profound recognition and solidifying my place in this world in such a beautiful manner. ONLINE ORDERS HAVE BEEN INSANE! . It is equally important for me to share that 50% of all proceeds will go towards my Lighthouse Foundation which is another wing of the work that I do. Lighthouse seeks to assist young people battling mental illness, depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts, I started the foundation in honour of my late baby sister and in hopes that I can help families and young people to seek the medical and psychological assistance they need. You will live. You will heal. You will overcome? ? #NomzamoRose
