Jenks Rooftop Garden Center

Less than 800 yards away from America’s Secret Garden – the National Arboretum, you will find another horticultural gem hidden at 910 Bladensburg Rd NE; the rooftop garden at W.S. Jenks.

Step off the street, through our front door, and follow the footsteps upstairs to our roof. There, you will be momentarily transported out of the city and find yourself pleasantly lost in our unique urban garden escape. Boasting a greenhouse, herb and vegetable gardens, and even an outdoor kitchen and gazebo, the rooftop at W.S. Jenks has everything you need to inspire your next outdoor living project.

Rooftop Garden Center

We have an extensive selection of annuals & perennials for your flowerbeds, a wide array of fruits, vegetables, & herbs for the home garden you've always dreamed of, as well as native, tropical, and indoor plants to bring a little bit of life to your living spaces.

Whether your planting space is in a yard, a balcony or patio, or any other creative space you have conjured up, we have the plants and hard goods needed to help create and maintain your own secret garden.

Should you find yourself missing the city whilst wandering the Jenks oasis, a scenic reminder can be found just past our walls. Views of Capitol Hill, Trinidad, Carver-Langston, NoMa, and of course, the Capitol Dome act as a gentle reminder that a beautiful garden escape of your own starts right around the corner, at W.S. Jenks.
