Find hardy roses where the surviving roots enable plants to rejuvenate as the same plant variety, rather than the rootstock variety, after a hard freeze. The company's mail order business resulted from a garden exhibit Jackson & Perkins set up at the 1939 World's Fair in New York entitled A Parade of Modern Roses. The Jackson and Perkins research center is just outside Somis California near the coast. Each year, between 300,000 and 400,000 seedlings are grown and evaluated at the research facility. Roses are heavy feeders amd it takes a lot of energy to produce those large and magnificent blooms.
