Originally planted by the local rose society, the Master Gardeners took over the rose garden in spring of 2006.  The garden has four areas:

  • Roses in the Rose Companion bed share the planting area with  shrubs, perennials and annuals
  • In the 8x20 foot beds of the Experimental rose beds, we’ll test current trends in rose care.  Two identical beds, one a control of “standard” care, the other a test care theory.
  • The Central Rose garden will have three separate rose displays:  Specie Roses and hybrids, Old Garden Roses and modern Roses
  • The WWI monument
