June 14, Field of Roses

The name, Roosevelt, is Dutch and means “from the rose fields”. This field of roses was Sara Roosevelt’s, FDR’s mother. In his Will, FDR requested to be buried in this garden. His grave, with the flag, is in front of the monument. Some photos of the roses.

The only one that is identified. Last time I was here, many had identification. Times change

  1. Nice place to be buried. I wonder what happened with the rose identification. Seems like visitors who are into roses would really be interested.
