Miniature Roses

Ralph Moore in LA Times

21 years ago

The Los Angeles Times printed an article today about Ralph Moore, the breeder of many, perhaps most, of the miniature roses available today. He's 98 years old and seriously ill; the article mentions that he plans to give the Sequoia Nursery property to the University of California/Davis, which will sell the land and use the proceeds to establish a chair of rose breeding in his name. The article says quite a lot about his work, including recent releases.

The article is at http://www.latimes.com/features/home/la-hm-rose21apr21,0,4417355.story?coll=la-home-home

Does anyone have insider information on whether
Sequoia Nursery will still be in business next year? I already ordered but am tempted to order again just to be sure I will get some I was going to get next year.

At this time it is expected that it will be business as usual at Sequoia Nursery in 2006.
