We Are Siarting Back 
Rockmont, along with many other 
nurseries, has had a hard struggle during 
the war years. Situated near Denver with 
her many war industries and adiacent te 
the University of Colorado where hundreds 
of soldiers were being trained, it has been 
impossible to secure help. Weeds have run 
rampant over parts of the nursery. ‘We 
have tried to keep up our stock of lilacs 
and phlox but many other plants have dis- 
appeared from the nursery. This is espec- 
ialy true of native plants which were 
usually collected. We have had no gas and 
no one familiar enough with native plants 
to do collecting. Many other plants ure in 
such short supply that we need all the 
stock for propagating purposes. 
No catalogues have been sent out for 
three years owing to the fact that we could 
not secure enough help to care for our 
local business. We are sending you this 
small list to remind you that we are still 
here in Boulder and hope you may find 
something in it you can use.
