White House Tulips Metal Bookmark
The White House Grounds began as approximately 85 acres of land selected by George Washington and were enclosed and cultivated by Thomas Jefferson. The landscape surrounding the White House was shaped by the planting of vegetable gardens, trees, and flowers. Changes to the White House Grounds evolved over time to meet the needs of the residents and the presidency.
President Ulysses S. Grant added flowerbeds, a circular pool, and a fountain on the North Lawn of the White House. During Lyndon B. Johnson's presidency, this fountain was surrounded by bright red tulips and grape hyacinths. The flowers around the North Fountain are changed several times a year. Today, thousands of flowers are planted each spring.
