Monrovia Nursery Company in 1947-1948 showing equipment and plants. Monrovia Nursery was founded in 1926 by Danish immigrant Harry E. Rosedale on a 10‑acre plot in Monrovia, where it stayed until around 1956, when it moved to a larger rural site in the Azusa‑Glendora area, and now has locations throughout the United States. From the Gary Boen collection. Here is an old LA Times article about the company.
