During its heyday, Union Park featured a variety of plant collections including peonies, cannas, and roses. Above are a couple of plant types that were found in the park. The top photo is a yellow Iris and the bottom photo features a Bleeding Heart.
I would love to be able to photograph the flowers of Union Park as they bloom in the springtime; however, I live too far away. If you have current images of flowers in the park and want to see your name on the Internet, please send me an email to share your photos.
Do you have more information or insights about Union Park? Do you possess historical family photos taken in Union Park? Would you would like to share your information and images with the world? Consider sharing them here at Union Park: Then & Now. Full credit will be given to your contribution.I'm particularly interested in photos of the roller coaster or the fish pond as well as the interior of the Mammoth Theatre. Family photos of the dance hall or the wading pool would be a great addition as well. If you are interested in sharing, please email me.
