A mini stroll through the Sacramento City Cemetery

I don't want this blog to be nothing but information based posts. That would get boring quickly.
A brief history of the Sacramento City Cemetery or at least the roses and why they are there.
In the early 1990s they created a rose garden in the cemetery from roses found in that cemetery, other cemeteries mostly through out California, and roses collected from other locals such as gold mining ghost towns.
They now once a year offer a open garden and rose sale. The roses sold are usually not in commerce, so this is the place to get them.
Malespina Red China

In my yard it was one of the more free blooming roses.








Lady Banks



Mme. Berkeley





This rose and the one below are Rainbow and Moser House Striped Pink Tea, I can't remember which is what.



There will be more pictures of the roses in the cemetery, but I think this is good for now.
