Commentary
The oldest public park in the United States, Elizabeth Park in Hartford, Connecticut, offers glorious displays of roses in the summer, the most wonderful you will ever see. As a garden, it has the most elegant and ambitious design. There is a central vine-covered gazebo and trellises extending outward in every direction. In full bloom, it takes one’s breath away.
