Gardens of the American Rose Center

Louisiana


If you're a rose lover, it would be a shame to miss these gardens, which contain more than 65 individual areas designed to show how roses can be grown in a home garden. Stroll the gorgeous grounds for the fecund, sweet smell alone. There's a full slate of seasonal events that take over the gardens, from Easter egg hunts in spring to special evening Christmas-lights walks in December.
