A Season of Roses

Show Your Affection!

This season we are offering a novel way for you to honor a special person in your life with A Season of Roses, a truly one-of-a-kind gift or remembrance opportunity.

This program offers an exclusive dedication of one rose bush growing in Cantigny’s formal Rose Garden for one season through two package options:

Dedication Package: With this package, you will receive a plaque engraved with the rose name and the intended dedication. The plaque will be prominently displayed in the garden through October. If you would like, we'll notify your honoree with a card announcing your thoughtful gift. As a token of our appreciation, at the close of A Season of Roses, we'll send you a photo of your rose bush in full bloom. Cost: $95

Reception Package: With this package, along with the dedication and card, four guests will enjoy an enchanted evening at the exclusive Rose Reception. Enjoy the beauty of the Rose Garden on June 27, 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm, featuring light hors d’oeuvres and wine with the fragrant aroma of roses in the air.  Cost: $175

What a beautiful way to honor someone you love!

Proceeds from A Season of Roses will benefit the not-for-profit Cantigny Foundation, part of the Chicago-based Robert R. McCormick Foundations.
