Stumblefoot Posted June 14, 2021 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2021 For those considering this voyage, I wanted to give you a flavor of a place we visited today that would be well worth your time; the International Rose Test Garden. Located in Portland, Oregon, it is the oldest official continuously operated public rose test garden in the United States. Sited on nearly 7-acres, there are more than 10,000 individual rose bushes which bloom through October.

turtlemichael Posted June 14, 2021 #2 Share Posted June 14, 2021 (edited) Fully agree. The Rose Garden is very special. The other very good garden in Portland is the Japanese Garden. Colors there will be spectacular too. Portland Japanese Garden Edited June 14, 2021 by turtlemichael 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jpalbny Posted June 15, 2021 #4 Share Posted June 15, 2021 It's a beautiful spot for sure. We went 2 years ago when we were in Portland. Nice setting and even more flowers than Stumbles posted pictures of! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel, check out my Facebook album for a better overview. Over 600 varieties and I doubt I even captured 10% of them. Truly spectacular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
