Chanticleer Garden is an estate and botanical garden located at 786 Church Road, Wayne, Pennsylvania. It is "quite simply, one of the most delightful gardens in the world."〔Jacki Lyden, (Chanticleer: A Botanical Distraction From Daily Life ), National Public Radio, June 17, 2012.〕 It is open Wednesday through Sunday, April through October; an admission fee is charged. The gate is crested with carved stone roosters, or ''chanticleers'' in French. The house and grounds were listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.〔〔Carl E. Doebley, 1984, (NRHP Nomination Form for Chanticleer ) Enter "public" for ID and "public" for password to access the site.〕 ==History== The estate was built by Christine Penrose and Adolph G. Rosengarten, Sr. He was head of the Philadelphia pharmaceutical manufacturer Rosengarten & Sons, founded in 1822 to produce quinine, and which in 1927 became part of Merck & Co. 〔(Michael A. Flannery, ''Civil War Pharmacy: A History of Drugs, Drug Supply and Provision, and Therapeutics for the Union and Confederacy;'' published by The Haworth Press, Binghamton, New York 2004 )〕 After his mother's death, Adolph G. Rosengarten, Jr. tore down his own stone house on the grounds to create its "ruin," then gave the property, including his parent's mansion, as a public garden. It opened to visitors in 1993. 〔(''Chanticleer Garden:'' a history )〕 The garden contains lawns and large trees, the Asian woods, a pond garden, the ruin and gravel garden, teacup garden, tennis court garden, and woodland. 〔(''Chanticleer'', a review by The Longwood Graduate Program, Public Horticulture, University of Delaware, 2007 )〕
