The Park of Roses is a public park that consists of thirteen acres of paved pathways, teak benches, and 12,000 roses. In addition to the three gardens of roses, the park also has herb and perennial gardens that are scattered amongst the rose shrubs. Each garden has something unique about it. For instance, the Formal Rose Garden utilizes an Italianate formal design where roses are grouped into symmetrical beds with a viewing tower and large fountain.
They are considered modern roses, and are made up of hybrid teas, floribundas, shrub roses, and grandifloras. The Heritage Rose Garden sits at the eastern end of the park and showcases what is known as old species of roses. The Park of Roses is free to all visitors and is accessible by wheelchair and stroller.
