What has made the town what it is today? Cowboys, lawmen, gunfights and ... roses.

Boothill Graveyard in Tombstone, Ariz, a town made famous by Wyatt Earp and the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. In the 1881 shootout, which lasted roughly 30 seconds, Earp, his brothers Virgil and Morgan, and friend Doc Holliday killed three cowboys — Billy Clanton and brothers Frank and Tom McLaury — who are buried in the graveyard.
