© Doreen Wynja for Monrovia MONROVIA Monrovia was founded by Harry E. Rosedale in 1926 with a simple mission, Distinctively Better® plants. Harry was an early pioneer in growing plants in containers until they were ready to be planted in the landscape. Following in his father’s footsteps, Mr. Rosedale’s son Miles strives to insure that Monrovia plants are grown in the best soil mixes available. These mixes are all specially formulated and produced at the home nursery. All Monrovia plants come potted in this time-tested soil to insure the highest success rate for every skill level of gardener. 12 © Monrovia © Doreen Wynja for Monrovia
