McGill Rose Garden is one of four designated All-America Rose Selections public gardens in the state of North Carolina, located in Charlotte's NoDa neighborhood. The garden is located on land formerly owned by prominent philanthropist Henry McGill, which was cultivated by his wife Helen and opened to the public for Mother's Day celebrations beginning in 1967. Since 1996, the 1.3-acre garden has been managed by the City of Charlotte, showcasing more than 1,000 rose bushes across more than 200 varieties. Annual and perennial plants are also showcased, including native and exotic blooms and herbs. Design elements throughout the park have been crafted by Charlotte native Tom Risser, including sculptures and fountains.
