The Reinisch Rose Garden

The Reinisch Rose Garden and Doran Rock Garden are gardens located in Gage Park, at 4320 SW 10th Avenue, Topeka, Kansas. The rose garden was designed by Chicago landscape architect Emmett Hill and landscape gardener L. R. Quinlan.

The Reinisch garden features 400 varieties of roses with over 6,500 plants. It is one of 23 test gardens in the United States for hybridizers, and officially designated for its All-America Rose Selections. Peak blooming times are late May into early June, and early to mid-September. Adjacent is the Logan Test Garden, a reflecting pool and the Doran Rock Garden.

The rose garden was initially planned by landscape architect and horticulturist E. F. A. Reinisch in 1926. Following his death in 1929, the garden was developed by the Topeka Horticulture Society, and opened in June 1930.[1]
