Reinisch Rose Garden and Doran Rock Garden, Botanical gardens in Topeka, United States.

The Reinisch Rose Garden contains over 6,500 plants representing 400 varieties of roses, while the Doran Rock Garden features a stone pedestrian bridge and reflecting pool.

Landscape architect E. F. A. Reinisch initiated the garden project in 1926, and after his death in 1929, the Topeka Horticulture Society completed it in June 1930.

The gardens function as one of 23 test locations in the United States for rose hybridizers, contributing to national horticultural research and development.

Visitors can observe roses blooming from May through October, with peak flowering periods occurring in late May, early June, and mid-September.

The garden earned recognition in literature when author Stephen King mentioned it in his 1997 novel Wizard and Glass, describing roses everywhere behind an arch.
