CHELSEA BRITTLYN

MAGEE ROSE GARDEN

"Magee Rose Garden holds a special place in my heart...I grew up in Carlsbad since I was an infant, these are my old stomping grounds. Over three years ago, Joe Smith convinced me to take the position of Garden Director when Ivy retired. I fell in love here, not only more in love with roses but with Joe, (now my husband) in this special garden"

Brenda Pollock-Smith, Magee Garden Director 2003

GOOD NATURE

Roses donated by Frank and Cherrie Grasso, Joe Smith and Brenda Pollock-Landers. Tile markers "Loved and Cared for by the California Coastal Rose Society" installed. Made by Joe Smith.

Sadly, the custom tiles were stolen by thieves shortly after the installation.
