ROSE GARDEN FOR WALNUT HIL PARK | Supt. Ellingwood Plants Hup- dreds of Bushes Near Hospital With the development of a rose garden and the planting of other flower beds in Walnut Hill park, park Superintendent Clyde Ellingwood expects to place New Britain among the lead-| ng American cities having munici- val rose gardens. The new garden has transformed « previously bleak spot in Walnut | Uil park into & place of beauty | where it can be seen from the New ain General hospital. acing Grand s and extending ik to the driveway to the monu- wient, almost 1,000 rose bushes are planted in parallel beds. Nine arch- 1 trellises reaching 15 feet across wo grassy walks will form supports for at least twice that many climb- | ramblers of various types, while 0 S00 bushes have been trans- ted from the nursery where they ve had no chance to reach the sunlight and have had no oppor- tunity to bloom for a good many cars. The beds are from 70 to 100 | t in length, In addition to the rose garden superintendent Ellingwood also has lded 18 parallel beds of flowers of many different types. There are two heds of phlox, while a variety of species too numerous to mention occupy the other beds. The slopes on the south side of the park, here- tofore noted for their frequency of | grass fires, will be a mass of as- sorted colors, next spring and w present to the observer a scene of horticultural beauty such as has never before been seen anywhere in New Britain parks. So elaborate are the changes that the suggestion has been made that this section of the park be given a special name, such as “Wulnut Hill | Flower Gardens.” A series of rock gardens for fully 200 feet or more will extend in crescent shape back of the flower garden and along ti driveway “These rock gardens will be extended between now and spring to flank the driveway from the monument to the entrance off the main driveway, | In the rock gardens have been | planted ferns, tulips, irises, small cedars, shrubbery and flowers. More | than 5,000 tulips have been planted | in the city's parks this fall, most of | them going to Walnut Hill park. | It is the plan of the park de- | partment to extend the rose garden | and other flower beds from Cedar | street to the top of the hill and | around the other side towards the | Walnut Hill school. Twenty-five years ago there was | not a single public garden in the | United States devoted to the raising | of roses. The first municipal rose | garden in America and one which still s recognized as the leading, garden of its kind is Elizabeth Park in Hartford. This was started in ! 1904. Today there are €63 municip rose gardens in America.

The same statement says this is more than any other country in the world, and probably more than all other countries put together. Last year more than 100,000 peo- ple visited Elizabeth Park, and the | Bronxpark in New York, while at least 75,000 visited the flower gardens in Forest park, Springtield, ! according to Dr. G.

One person asked why, if prohibi- tion was the “open sesame” to ath- | letic prowess, that the United States | took only one first place in the | Olympic race ay Barbuti, in the | quarter mile.
