The Ritter Park Rose Garden has been voted one of the country’s best rose gardens numerous times and features more than 3,000 roses. Each year several All-American Rose Selections (AARS) winning roses are planted in the Rose Garden as we work to continue its beauty and award worthiness.

Normally achieving “full bloom” status in late May to mid-June, the Rose Garden is a favorite destination for weddings, baby and bridal showers, and family get-togethers all season long, and is available for exclusive use through our rental program. The Rose Garden’s Room With A View is also available for rent, and is utilized for meetings, baby and bridal showers, or smaller parties and get-togethers. Many brides have chosen the Ritter Park Rose Garden and the Room With A View together for the perfect wedding and reception.
