I am trying to locate a 'Golden State' rose to purchase or a cutting to start. Our park, the California Nursery Historical Park, is the last 20 acres of the California Nursery Company in Niles California (now a district of Fremont). The CNCo helped introduce the 'Golden State' as the official rose of the 1930-40 Golden Gate International Exposition on Treasure Island in San Francisco. We are coming up on the 80th year since the world's fair. I have not been able to obtain this rose. I have checked the Santa Rosa garden listed in HMF. And I assume that Cliff's is no longer. Does anyone have this rose? I am checking with the Portland Rose Garden, but haven't heard from them yet.
I just posted some pictures in the "photos" for 'Golden State'. (I'm not sure this was an appropriate kind of photo to post.)
