A view of the Barkley and McClellan residence. The right side of the house is completely covered with a shrub rose. Handwritting on the bottom of the page reads, "The La Marque rose as it grows in Los Angeles, Cal." The Lamarque rose is named for General Lamarque, and is a fine, vigorous climber, its flowers are of medium size, double in form, with white petals that have a touch of lemon yellow at the base. More handwritting on the upper portion of the picture, which appears backward, reads, "Barkley and McClelland home on Spring St. between 7th & 8th." The address is listed as 747 South Spring, but the original address was 647 South Spring, between 7th and 8th, in Los Angeles.
