A history of the White House Gardens with beautiful color plates of the gardens and flowers by Harold Sterner. The White House Rose Garden is a garden bordering the Oval Office and the West Wing of the White House in Washington, D.C., United States. The garden is approximately 125 feet long and 60 feet wide (38 meters by 18 meters). It balances the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden on the east side of the White House Complex. The White House Rose Garden was established in 1913 by Ellen Loise Axson Wilson, wife of Woodrow Wilson, on the site of a previous colonial garden established by First Lady Edith Roosevelt (wife of Theodore Roosevelt) in 1902. Prior to 1902, the area contained extensive stables, housing various horses and coaches, on the grounds of the present-day Oval Office, Cabinet Room, and Rose Garden. During the 1902 Roosevelt renovation, First Lady Edith Roosevelt insisted on having a proper colonial garden to help replace the conservatory rose house that had formerly stood there. She made it because she thought it was more proper to have a garden on the property. In 1961, during the John F. Kennedy administration, the garden was largely redesigned by Rachel Lambert Mellon concurrently with extensive repair work to the East Garden. Mellon created a space with a more defined central lawn, bordered by flower beds that were planted in a French style whilst largely using American botanical specimens. The present-day garden follows the same layout first established by Mellon, where each flower bed is planted with a series of 'Katherine' crabapples and Littleleaf lindens bordered by low diamond-shaped hedges of thyme. Additionally, the outer edges to the flower bed which face the central lawn are edged with boxwood, and each of the four corners to the garden are punctuated by Magnolia × soulangeana; specifically, obtaining specimens that were found growing along the banks of the Tidal Basin by Mellon. Ever since then, roses have served as the primary flowering plants in the garden, including large numbers of "Queen Elizabeth" grandiflora roses, along with the tea roses "Pascale", "Pat Nixon", and "King's Ransom". A shrub rose, "Nevada Rose", also serves to add a cool note of white coloration to the landscaping. Seasonal flowers are further interspersed to add nearly year-round color and variety to the garden. Some of the Spring blooming bulbs planted in the present-day Rose Garden include jonquil, daffodil, fritillaria, grape hyacinth, tulips, chionodoxa and squill. Summer blooming annuals are changed on a near yearly basis. In the fall, chrysanthemum and flowering kale bring color leading all the way up until the early winter days. In something of a decidedly odd tradition, each and every summer sees garden gnomes taken and placed throughout the Rose Garden on July 1st - the number of which representing the number of living presidents at that particular moment in time.

Rare large Official White House color photograph of President Richard Nixon and his cabinet, signed by the President, Vice President Gerald Ford, and sixteen members of his cabinet. The full-length group portrait, taken by a White House photographer, shows the President and his cabinet standing in a row in the Oval Office, each having signed vertically in the image above his or her portrait. Those signing are President Richard Nixon, Vice President Gerald Ford, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, Secretary of the Treasury George Shultz, Secretary of Defense James R. Schlesinger, Attorney General William B. Saxbe, Secretary of the Interior Rogers Morton, Secretary of Agriculture Earl Butz, Secretary of Commerce Frederick B. Dent, Secretary of Labor Peter J. Brennan, Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare Caspar Weinberger, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development James T. Lynn, Secretary of Transportation Claude Brinegar, Budget Director Roy Ash, Counselors Bryce Harlow, Melvin Laird, and Anne L. Armstrong, and United Nations Ambassador John A. Scali, lacking only the signature of Postmaster General E. T. Klassen. Triple matted and framed. In near fine condition with some fading to the signatures of Ford, Dent, and Ash, some fading to the image, a few scattered minor creases. The entire piece measures 21 inches by 17 inches. A remarkable record of the Nixon cabinet in the final months of his presidency, uniting the signatures of the president, his future successor, and his cabinet on a single official White House image. Richard Nixon (1913-1994), the thirty-seventh President of the United States, assembled this cabinet in the final, embattled period of his presidency, as the Watergate scandal closed in around him. The photograph is doubly historic for including Vice President Gerald Ford, whom Nixon had appointed to replace the disgraced Spiro Agnew in December 1973 and who would succeed to the presidency upon Nixon?s resignation in August 1974, becoming the only person ever to serve as president without having been elected to either the presidency or the vice presidency. Among the signers are Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, Secretary of Defense James Schlesinger, and Treasury Secretary George Shultz, figures who shaped American policy through one of the most turbulent chapters in the nation?s modern history.…
