​On July 4, 2018, at the World Federation of Roses Societies Triennial Conference in Copenhagen Denmark, the Laura Conyers Smith Municipal Rose Garden was honored as to be named a  recipient of WFRS Award of Garden Excellence.    ​
The Rose Garden is the realization of a dream that began in 1931, when a group of citizens under the leadership of Laura Conyers Smith established ​the Kansas City Rose Society. Today, there are about 3,000 roses of nearly 150 varieties in the 1.5 acre garden.
