ABOUT THE PARK

Adjacent to the Woodland Park Zoo the Rose Garden is one of only two dozen certified American Rose Test Gardens in the United States. At its picturesque best from May through August, the garden displays new rose hybrids before they become available to amateur rose enthusiasts.

The garden is maintained by the Woodland Park Zoo society.

HISTORY

Established by Park Board in 1922, “This civic rose garden made possible by efforts of the Lions Club and is dedicated to rose lovers of Seattle.”

(Edited from the files of Don Sherwood, 1916-1981, Park Historian.)
