It has served as a picturesque stage for state dinners, ceremonies and the signing of peace treaties for decades.
But Donald Trump's revamp of the White House's famous Rose Garden is starting to look a lot like his Mar-a-Lago estate.
The US President sparked controversy earlier this year when it was revealed he was planning a significant overhaul of the historic space, situated just outside the Oval Office.
The immaculate garden, surrounded by rose bushes, was created in 1913 before being renovated by John F Kennedy in 1961. It has since acted as an iconic backdrop for Presidents in office.
But Mr Trump declared in March that he would pave over the Rose Garden because the grass is always wet, meaning it is an inconvenience for women in high heels.
