1 the W hite H ouse G arden An exhibition developed and supported by the white house historical association and organized for travel by the smithsonian institution traveling exhibition service Exhibition Prospectus

2 If the White House is the People s House, then its gardens are truly America s gardens. The White House grounds are the oldest continuously maintained landscaped gardens in the United States. Ancient oaks and elms shaded George Washington as he walked the farmlands of the future presidential park. The trees there today provide an organic link to the presidents who followed him. Over the centuries, the lawns and gardens of the White House have been the backdrop for the activities of first families, receptions for kings and queens, and signings of laws and treaties affecting the world. They have also provided the setting for more personal events, like the exchange of wedding vows, by young couples, the sounds of presidents hitting golf balls and tossing horseshoes, and the joyous laughter of children rolling Easter eggs. Carved from 82 acres set aside for a President s Park by Washington city planner Pierre Charles L Enfant in 1792, the 18-acre president s garden is a spectacular ensemble of formal gardens, secluded natural retreats, and expansive parkland. Flowers, herbs, and more than 500 trees, including the ancient magnolia thought to have been planted by Andrew Jackson in the 1830s, thrive in the garden. Inside the White House, living plants and cut flowers contribute to its long tradition of grace and hospitality. Presidents and first ladies have all played a part in the development of the White House gardens. John Adams requested a vegetable garden but was out of office before it was harvested. Farmer-statesman Thomas Jefferson cultivated figs and orange trees in his office. Theodore Roosevelt asked that the mint patch behind the White House be saved during a construction project so that he and his wife, Edith, could continue to enjoy their mint Exhibition at a glance juleps. John F. Kennedy had the Rose Garden redesigned as a stage for Freestanding units with text official ceremonies, press conferences, and elegant dinners. And, as first and graphics lady, Hillary Rodham Clinton installed contemporary sculpture in the 1,000 square feet East Garden. Some of the nation s best-known landscape designers and Limited security $4,500 plus outgoing shipping architects, including Andrew Jackson Downing, Beatrix Farrand, and Tours May 2008 July 2012 Frederick Law Olmsted Jr., have also left their mark. The White House Garden, organized in collaboration with the White House Historical Association, traces the development of the White House gardens and grounds from the 1790s to the present. Thematic sections address presidents and first ladies, presidential children, White House gardeners and historical plantings, and the Rose Garden, East Garden (the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden), and Children s Garden. Reproductions of historic and contemporary photographs, drawings, maps, and correspondence from various resources convey the aesthetic, social, political, and historical significance of this magnificent landscape.
