Rosedown Plantation

I have been interested in touring this plantation since last fall, but after reading the description of the plantation gardens, decided to wait until summer to view the grounds when all of the foiliage is in full bloom. As evidenced in the photos, the wait was definitely worth it! Rosedown definitely had the prettiest grounds/gardens of all the plantations that I have seen in Louisiana!

Unlike the Myrtles, this plantation was clearly signed and I did not get lost on my way, thanks to the HUGE sign on the highway pointing the way to Rosedown!
