The Huntington Estate Rose Garden
One hundred thirty acres of the Huntington Estate is dedicated to botanical. The fifteen specialized gardens are arranged within a park-like landscape of rolling lawns. Among the most remarkable are the Desert Garden, a large outdoor grouping of mature cacti, the Japanese Garden, the Chinese Garden, and the Rose Garden. The Camellia collection is the largest in the world. Other important botanical attractions include the Subtropical, Herb, and Palm gardens.
The Rose Garden shows the history of roses covering a 2000 year history of the Rose. The Rose Garden Tea Room which serves tea daily is a special treat for visitors.
Tomorrow I will feature the Japanese Garden
