Nor'East Miniature Roses, Rowley
John Saville is president of Nor'East Miniature Roses, Inc. in Rowley. He graduated from Dartmouth College in 1973 and joined the family business two years later. John and his wife Holly have three children.
Nor'East Miniature Roses is the country's largest mail-order company devoted
exclusively to miniature roses. As a mail-order nursery, Nor'East sends
their roses all over the country each week. Many agricultural states have
specific requirements concerning the importation of plants which could
carry insects or disease. John has found MDAR staff to be most cooperative
in inspecting his plants on a frequent basis, allowing him to do business
in all 50 states. |
