Cocktails in the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden.
|
On
September 19, The New York Botanical Garden (NYBG)
held its annual Rose Garden Dinner Dance honoring Arthur and Janet
Ross. Event chairmen were Mr. and
Mrs. Harry Burn III and Mr.
and Mrs. Lionel Goldfrank III.
The Honorary chairmen were Mr. and Mrs. James
Benenson, Jr., Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Hubbard,
and Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Nolen.
This annual event showcases the Botanical Garden's
world famous Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden, designed
by landscape architect Beatrix Jones Farrand in 1916,
and completed in 1988 through a generous gift by David
and Peggy Rockefeller. The recently renovated Rose Garden
features more than 3,000 rose plants, including 1,000
newly planted roses – with more than 600 cultivated
varieties – arranged in the triangular-shaped garden.
