This garden needs sorting out.
First, it is in the District of Columbia for which there is no choice on the dropdown menus to designate the location for search. Second, the garden's website is apparently defunct - nationalgarden.org. Third, J&P apparently donated a bundle to establish either a successor alternative garden now at the USBG named the Margaret Hagedorn Rose Garden.

The current URL for this garden is https://www.usbg.gov/national-garden. It has very little information on the rose garden, other than it specializes in roses that can be grown in the Middle Atlantic states using organic methods. Among the roses growing there are Autumn Damask, banksiae, Cramoisi Superior and Duchesse de Brabant. Some nice moderns, as well. The garden is well worth a visit.
