Inez Grant Parker Memorial Rose Garden

"This place is pretty, serene and free. You cannot go wrong with the Inez grant Parker rose garden."

"Super pretty and FREE! Parked in the zoo lot for free and walked over."

"A must when checking out balboa. There is free parking on the main road and the garden is also free. The hundreds of different varieties will leave you feeling rejuvenated and in awe of natures beauty. Makes for a nice stroll."

"There are a lot of beautiful flowers. Perfect to go in the morning and take pictures. It small but packed of roses. You can walk this area in just a few mins. But you can sit here, under the shade of a tree and read a book. Or just take your time walking along the roses and smell them. They smell wonderful. Couple of bees resting on top of the flowers."

"The Inez Grant Parker Memorial Rose Garden is located in Balboa Park along Park Boulevard. The garden has over 2500 rose bushes filled with a large variety of fragrant colorful roses. The rose garden is a beautiful place to visit just to take a stroll or get away from your busy day. The rose garden has a walkway that leads around the garden with seating area throughout. It’s one of my favorite places thus far. It’s truly a beautiful spot to wander, to ponder, or just to be enjoy natures beauty. The roses bloom from March through December, with the roses usually at their peak in April and May. Parking is located next to the garden or go over the bridge to the Rose Garden (free) Water fountain in the middle of the garden Across the pedestrian bridge adjacent to the desert garden near the fountain of Balboa Park"
