Summary
Montrose Park. Vegetation features that do not contribute to the historic significance include plantings added after the period of significance (1919). However, these can still be compatible with the historic character, not detracting from the design layout and openness of the central lawn. A) Osmanthus hedge along the R Street boundary; B) Invasive species encroaching on the woodland edge; C) Nordman fir planted by the Georgetown Garden Club in 1926 for use as a community Christmas tree.
