Item Description
Within 30 minutes of Philadelphia, Chanticleer is one of the great gardens of the region. We celebrated two anniversaries in 2013 - our centennial as the Rosengarten estate and 20th year as a public garden. Come discover why London's Financial Times calls us "planted to perfection."
The Chanticleer estate dates from the early 20th-century, when land along the Main Line of the Pennsylvania Railroad was developed for summer homes to escape the heat of Philadelphia. Mr. Rosengarten's humor is evident in naming his home after the estate "Chanticlere" in Thackeray's 1855 novel The Newcomes. The fictional Chanticlere was "mortgaged up to the very castle windows" but "still the show of the county." Playing on the word, which is synonymous with "rooster," the Rosengartens used rooster motifs throughout the estate.
The estate areas include Bell's Run Creek, Bell's Woodland, Ruin Garden, Gravel Garden, Orchard, Vegetable Garden, Cut Flower Garden, Tennis Court Garden, Tea Cup Garden, Chanticleer House Garden, Minder Woods, Pond Garden, Asian Woods, Serpentine and Bulb Meadow.
