Rose (public) Garden
Listing last updated on Mon Nov 2024
Elko, Nevada United States
The Elko County Rose Garden is located in Elko, Nevada, behind the Elko County Courthouse at the corner of 6th and Pine Streets. The primary objective it to create a garden that includes winter hardy, easy care roses, especially those varieties that thrive without winter protection in Elko's climate (USDA Zone 5). Every year, fifty winter-hardy varieties will be added. For the year 2000, roses hybridized by Dr. Griffith Buck have been selected. Next year's roses will come from Canadian breeders. There is a ten-year plan to add roses from breeders in Germany, France, Scandinavia, the USA, UK, species roses, and roses from other countries as well as old roses of unknown origin. The garden was designed, established, and maintained by the Elko Rose Garden Association whose President is Dan Turner (that's his email address above). The garden is entirely supported by donations.
