The Anderson Rose Garden is close to the zoo and playground in the southwest part of Capron Park in Attleboro, Massachusetts. Restored by the Attleboro Garden Club with the Attleboro Parks Department, the three-year project was completed in 2015 which marked the 60th anniversary of the garden and the club.

The garden is laid out in concentric circles with grass walking paths. It includes over 100 rose bushes, half a dozen wood pergolas painted white, a few benches and a rock retaining wall enclosing the southern half of the plot. There were at least six varieties of roses in bloom on the morning of my visit, 25 October 2022.

Nearby parking is available in the lot for the zoo and along the park's loop road.
