Discover the Enchanting White House Gardens

The White House grounds are beautifully landscaped with a variety of trees, shrubs, and flowers. The garden has been redesigned and expanded throughout America’s history. In 1913, Ellen Wilson, the first wife of Woodrow Wilson, had a rose garden planted just outside of the Oval Office. It has been known as “the Rose Garden” ever since. Mrs. Wilson also brought the landscape designer Beatrix Farrand to the White House to landscape the East Side of the garden, which remains in almost exactly the same form today.
