Towards A Climate Resilient Food Economy:

We have passionately searched the Sierra Nevada and Western States to re-discover the living library of plants still scattered across Northern California, those trees and plants left over from the 1800’s and early 1900’s Gold Rush era.   These are the grandmother trees that have become climate resilient with no human attention for the last 100 years. They give the best fruit and nuts in conditions that most fruit and nut trees can not endure with large annual temperature variations. These  grandmother trees have learned to thrive under the most harsh conditions. We want to make them available to growers, gardeners and communities throughout the West Coast.

We have personally found these trees and have taken cuttings directly from the 100+ year old grandmother trees that still cling to life in ghostly, historic orchards. We offer very rare and exclusive plants – some may have only just been rediscovered.

95% of plants available during the 1800s are no longer available today.  We are saving what is left before they die.

Product Details

This fragrant pink rose produces many sweet gorgeous blooms in early summer. It grows as an elegant bush with beautiful green foliage. Blooms in the end of June here at 2500' feet.

This rose still grows on an old homestead in Camptonville, CA on the Late Leland Pauly's Property. He was a local legend who passed on a few years ago. He loved this rose and said it was at least 100 years old. He was the postmaster for many decades, an avid collector, photographer, historian, gardener, volunteer and wonderful person. His memory was encyclopedic and he could talk your ear off for literally hours. Sometimes it was hard to escape. Still his wisdom and memories were valuable. He is missed and loved.
