    When did Capt. Thomas remove from Pennsylvania to California?

    The American Rose Annual, 1918 has an article by him in which he gives a list of roses retained and roses discarded in his new garden. The list has many teas; I am wondering if he grew teas in Pennsylvania.

    Did I read somewhere that Capt George Thomas' wife demolished his garden after his death?

    That's the story I've heard from Southern California rosarians. I don't recall reading it in a publication.
