 Welcome to Tyler, "The Rose Capital of America”!
Established in 1952, the Tyler Municipal Rose Garden is the nation's largest rose garden, spanning 14 acres.
It includes over 38,000 rose bushes and over 500 different varieties, as well as reflecting pools, walkways and fountains.
The gardens are a popular destination for both local residents and for visitors, and offer a diversity of photographic opportunities.
They are the location for numerous wedding photo shoots, school group photos, parties, reunions and professional photography as well.
It is one of 24 All American Rose Selection (AARS) test gardens in the country, and also includes a unique "Idea Garden" created and maintained by the Smith County Master Gardeners.
The Rose Garden is open from dawn until dark, seven days a week. Admission is free.
