Abstract

An article on Royall River Roses in North Yarmouth, owned by David King, 48, who designed and built the L.L. Bean Mountain Center in Newry, and his wife, Eileen, 42, who practiced law before joining the rose business full-time last year. In 1993, the King's bought Forevergreen Farm from Suzy Verrier, a leading specialist in old-fashioned and modern hardy roses, which the Kings now sell across the country. In their first two years they more than doubled their sales. This year they expect to ship some 30,000 rose plants They count among their customers Barbara Bush and the capital city of Iceland.
