Tyler, is partially in North Cherokee and Southern Smith Counties, and was born
out of two nearby communities. The International Railroad Company opened the Palestine-Troupe
Line on November 9, 1872 and the first settlers of Troupe, or Zavalla as it was

Tyler, Texas has been nicknamed the "Rose Capital of America" because
of its large role in the rose-growing industry; about 20% of commercial rose bushes

rose bushes are packaged and shipped from the area. It boasts the nation's largest
municipal rose garden and hosts the Texas Rose Festival each October, which draws
more than 100,000 spectators.
