Hamann Rose Garden

SCROLL DOWN AND CLICK ON PHOTO TO ENLARGE

The beautiful Hamann Rose Garden in Antelope Park sits on land once used to grow hay for the Parks Department work horses. In the 1940's,
this land was developed into park land and evolved into a rose garden.

In 2006 The Lincoln Parks Foundation, the Lincoln Rose Society, and the City of Lincoln's Parks & Recreation Department, lead a campaign to renovate
and restore Lincoln's only municipal rose garden. A generous donation from Don Hamann, owner of Sartor Hamann Jewelers, and an avid rose
grower, helped kick this campaign off. The renovation started in the Fall of 2006 and was fully completed by 2008.

The garden features 1,300 All-American Rose Society (AARS) award winning roses, miniatures, hybrid teas, floribundas and grandifloras.
