In Charlotte, North Carolina's Belmont district, at 940 North Davidson Street, lies the city-supported park known as McGill Rose Garden. It is one of just four public gardens in the entire state of North Carolina and one of only 53 in the entire country to have received the All-America Rose Selections (AARS) designation. [1][2]

Background of the garden The area where the garden is now located was previously a coal and ice yard. Henry McGill, a well-known philanthropist in Charlotte, purchased it in 1950. His wife Helen started planting roses to lessen the coal yard's gritty history, and she gradually turned the once-industrial area into a lovely garden.
