The Ringling Rose Gardens at The Ringling Museum of Art

The Ringling Rose Gardens house 'Mabel's Garden'.
Mabel's Garden has been designated as an accredited public rose garden
(only two others exist in Florida) and provides an excellant place to visit and actually see roses as
they grow, rather than look at them in photos or in nurseries. The Mable Ringling Historic Rose Garden
has received prestigious accreditations from the American Rose Society and the Award of Excellence for
a Demonstration Rose Garden.
