All-American Rose Garden

Located on the Hattiesburg Campus of the University of Southern Mississippi, this fragrant Eden opened in 1974 and has more than 800 individual rose bushes of almost 36 varieties. Even though it's open 24/7 the best time to bask in the garden's sweet perfume is in May when the roses are blooming. Please refrain from plucking the delicate beauties; you can be fined up to $500!
