Roses amazing this fall

The roses are always impressive here. But this fall is over the top with profusion of blooms. A great place to sit, amble, or chat. It is small but mighty and so extremely well maintained.

    Evanston's Hidden Gem
    This place is Evanston's hidden gem. If you like flowers and roses, this place is special. It is a beautiful, peaceful garden. It is well tended and a pleasure to walk through. It has many rose varieties and lots of colors. I like the multicolored roses the best. It is free and open. You can walk through at any time. There is also a beautiful fountain, which unfortunately is not running this year due to Covid, although I am not sure why.

    Beautiful rose garden on Lake Street.
    Delightful rose filled garden, tended and cared for by the Evanston gardener. Large grassy area is perfect for outdoor weddings! Original fountain from the square in Evanston has been rehabbed and erected here. Love watching the array of colors from June through autumn.
