Each year All-American Rose Selections chooses one of its 125 gardens as the Outstanding Display Garden, and in 2007 Manito Park’s own Rose Hill was named number one in the nation. In addition, Rose Hill has received an Outstanding Maintenance Award for the past 20 years from AARS, a non-profit association of rose growers and introducers dedicated to the introduction and promotion of exceptional roses.

Since 1938 the AARS seal of approval has continued to grace outstanding new rose varieties that have withstood the test of time—and Mother Nature.  Rose Hill now is home to over 150 varieties of hybrid tea, frandiflora, floribunda and miniature roses, along with a collection of old-fashioned roses.
