- San Jose Municipal Rose Garden
The San Jose Municipal Rose Garden (5.5 acres) is a rose garden located at the intersection of Naglee Avenue and Dana Avenue, San Jose, California, in the Rose Garden neighborhood. It is open to the public daily without charge.
The garden was once a prune orchard, but was bought by San Jose in 1927 and is now exclusively devoted to roses. It features more than 3,500 rose shrubs representing 189 rose varieties.
On May 3, 2004, an estimated 3,500 people attended the memorial service for former NFL safety and U.S. Army Ranger Pat Tillman, who was killed in combat in Afghanistan, in the garden.
