California Pajarosa

Roses were first planted on our property in 1979 by our founders John Furman and Alan Mitchell. All our greenhouses were self-built by our own employees using steel frames and a double-ply polyurethane covering. In 1992, California Pajarosa became the first rose growers in Northern California to institute hydroponic growing methods. While initially an ecological experiment to reduce water run-off, we quickly realized that we were able to grow higher quality roses while increasing plant density and therefore increasing production per square foot.
