Freshness is the key to getting premium quality bio controls, fruit trees, roses or other full grown plants or bare roots. Our cargo goes straight from our packing facility to a Fed Ex, UPS or USPS facility.

We sell roses throughout the United States and have our plants ready from late October through the middle of April and either keep them in nursery pots or bare root in cold storage. We will ship your roses when the planting time is right for your area or as you indicate in your order or follow up email. Availability of bare root roses until early December is limited, so contact us if you have special early season needs. Our interest is in getting you plants that will thrive and produce great flowers, there are many gardeners that get plants that just grow and stay green. When you purchase plants from us, understand we will pick out the best plants available and the most effective means of packing and transportation needed to get your order there. These cost of doing this is outlined in the charts below. The larger the order, the greater the discounts. 

When sending a gift, Please mark your order as a gift so that it gets there on time.

That does not mean we don't make mistakes. There have been orders that were late, some that quite late and a few that never made it. There are orders that did meet customer expectations or plants that did not grow well. Those are few, but not to the affected person. In the event that your order should become one of those we will work with you to get your order problem resolved. 

How We Pack Our Bare Root Roses  

  • Bare root roses are prepared for shipment in most cases in this manner.

  • First we dip the rose plants in Structure fertilizer from Actagro. This will help stimulate root growth as soon as the plants get into the ground.

  • Second the plants are dunked in Anti Stress 2000. This covers the plants in protective thin plastic layer that keeps them from drying out.

  • Third the roses are wrapped in a thick paper sleeve or packed in a heavy plastic bag with moist pine shavings.

  • Fourth we pack them tightly in one several different types of boxes for shipment to you.

We also offer October shipping of bare root roses for those gardeners in cold climates that want to get a good planting started a head of the late Fall and Winter weather conditions. This is an ideal method for getting early spring blooms from your roses. These plants are guaranteed to establish themselves or you will get a replacement rose in the Spring. Note that bare rose trees and fruit trees have much shorter schedule schedules. This is due to the fact that these plants dry out very quickly in transit or in garden. You may need to store these plants in a trash with very wet mulch or wood shavings for a week or two prior to the best planting weather in your area. Orders placed past March 31 May require shipment of potted or semi potted roses due to a lack of availability.

We would like to thank all of the people ordering the huge amount of roses from us. The volume has continue to exceeded expectations and helping us to build a great rose and flowering plant nursery. 

Because our client is Nationwide with gardeners in many different climate zones, we begin our bare root season in early October, this allows gardeners in colder zones most of our roses in late October and through April. 

Shipping for the Eastern USA is mostly done via UPS. From late April through September USPS  Priority or Express mail may be chosen to avoid damage from heat.

Some people have asked for Next Day Delivery on their orders. This is not typically a problem in CA, AZ and NV. Elsewhere this is very expensive and not worth the price, USPS Express mail is the best way for "Next Day Delivery" which is most often 2 days.
