Rose Garden

Passing through the arch of the Derby Summer House you enter the Rose Garden. Designed by Herbert Browne in 1904 it is enclosed by a brick wall with marble coping and it contained two fountains. At the center of the garden once sat a bronze, the Boy from Pompeii, looking over a shallow marble-tiled fountain. At the east wall is Thermes, a garden terminus, over-looking a pool that once contained lotus and water lilies. The recently restored plantings include perennials and hundreds of period roses.
