Kathy --- I am sorry to say that no one can tell you how long your favorite dinnerware pattern was in production. When the Red Wing plant shut down most of the records went to the dump and no one had any idea that anyone would collect this stuff.
The "Anniversary Line" was introduced in 1953 but there is no indication that "Country Garden" was in the introductry group. It could have been added as the line increased in popularity. It must have beeen fairly popular because there is a fair amount available now.
