My sixth year working this beautiful city garden that is a 3.7 mile drive from my residence that I began visiting at the start of the pandemic after the county shelter in place directive. The dark red text elements are taken directly from the garden website QR Codes page of cultivar descriptions. Unfortunately due to a laptop failure that left me without a computer for 2 months, I was not able to recall detailed descriptions for most roses below. Link to map of the San Jose Municipal Rose Garden (SJMRG) that is at Naglee at Dana Avenue:
