@Kristine LeGault 8a pnw If it was me, it would depend on the garden size. The best look for an arbor is having the same roses on both sides of an arbor. So go with both Quick Silver if you have a big garden and put KMK at a different location. If you have a small garden, QS on one side and KMK on the other side. Helen

Rostock is usually Dr. Huey: https://www.regannursery.com/faq-category/
I was digging around and they say the roses they bring in from Canada are on Multiflora and they list those ones here:

Anybody ever ordered rose trees from them? What did you think? I'm really tempted to get a couple this year.

@bayarea_girl_z10a_ca @Stephanie, 9b inland SoCal Thank you for the information and link!

can anyone tell me what regan charges for their roses?

ac91z6, I got a standard Pope John Paul2 last year and it has been wonderful.

I am planning on adding another

Standard this year. maybe love Song

@Kimberly zone 10 so cal Here are the prices of bare root roses last year: $22.99 for non David Austin roses, $26.99 for David Austin, $19.99 for miniature roses. I think they have very good bare root rose prices, and the bare roots are in good condition. If you order at least 3 roses, you get 10% off ( doesn’t have to be the same rose). If you live near by and can pick up the roses, you can save on the shipping cost.

@ac91z6 I ordered bare root tree roses from them before, and they are in good condition and grow well. Helen

bayarea_girl z9ca thank you! that certainly helps to know in the planning!!

How about the root size or container size, compared to Rose Unlimited, DA official site or others?

@northlandyogi_mi5a Container size is 5-gallon and that is too expensive to ship so you have to pick up locally and their container rose price isn’t cheap ($50 for non-Austin, and $60 for Austin). Their bare root rose price is excellent and it’s often grade 1. Rose Unlimited sells own root roses in 1-gallon containers so RU rose size is smaller and 1-3 years behind Regan’s bare root roses. Helen

Thanks for the notice! Looks like I will be racing to order Yves Piaget and Evelyn.

Folks, if you see anything you really want, don't wait! :D

How does David austins from Regan compare to bareroots from DA. I was planning to preorderon the DA website. I looked up Regans and they sell DA. Which ones are better?

@bayarea_girl_z10a_ca Thanks! I've heard lots of good things about Rose Unlimited and they are larger than the band ones sold by others. It sounds like Regan is even better. My Heirloom Roses arrived last week in 1 gallon containers. Their roses are expensive. I don't have comparison points as to the root size.

@mysticwaves_zone7a They both sell grade 1 bare roots. Just group your rose vendors to the minimal number to save on the shipping cost. DA gives 5 year warranty for their roses.

@northlandyogi_mi5a Each rose nursery serves its own purpose. Big box stores have common roses at the cheapest price. The next price level is online rose nurseries such as Regan where you can have more rose selection and their bare root price is reasonable. People in cold zones often order roses from own root nurseries such as Burlington (quart size, excellent rose price and shipping cost), Rogue Valley Roses, Rose Unlimited (1-gallon size), HeirloomRoses (1-gallon size, wait for sale promo)... These own root rose nurseries often carry hard to find roses that you can’t find at big box stores or Regan. Combine your rose order to the least number of rose vendors also save you money on shipping. Don’t pay $30 + shipping for a DA rose that your local stores have it for $ 20 or less. Helen

Regan is open for ordering today. Here is the bare root rose price:

David Austin: $28.99

Non-David Austin: $22.99 ($26.99 new introduction)

36" tree rose: $49.99 ($54.99 new introduction)

24" patio tree rose: $34.99

18" mini tree rose: $34.99

I bought Quicksilver to replace a brugmansia (Angel’s Trumpet) that doesn’t bloom much in my climate and Boscobel for a friend. Quicksilver will be in the front in the most prominent spot in front of the house so I hope it has good foliage for me here along with abundant flowers.

I'm kind of new to this...can anyone tell me if they ship out now or in the spring? I'm used to seeing potted plants for fall shipping and bare rooted for spring shipping.

I got my order placed

Ordered a standard Love Song $49.99 for a 36 inch rose tree and a Quicksilver for the other side of my arbor .

Shipping was $40 but that is because of the standard .

@Hutchae84 Zone 8b/PNW The bare roots at Regan are for 2021 spring shipping. They start shipping in February 2021 unless you pick a later date if you are in a cold zone. If you order bare root roses from PalatineRoses, then you have an option of receiving the roses around November 2020 or Spring 2021. Helen

@Stephanie, 9b inland SoCal(9b) Quick Silver and Boscobel are both wonderful roses. I love mine.

@Kristine LeGault 8a pnw I think both Love Song and Quick Silver are perfect roses :)

I didn't find anything from Regan's list to add to my garden this year. I'm waiting for PalatineRoses. Helen

Placed my order with Regan’s this morning. I’m excited about this list!

Life of the Party

Easy Does It

Queen of Elegance

Peter Mayle

Sweet Spirit

These are all new varieties for me. Hoping to have a good show of blooms and fragrance next year.

@bayarea_girl_z10a_ca thank you for the heads up on the order date!

Sunny, you got some really great roses. I wanted a couple more but the standard rose plus shipping set me back.

I got Claire, Orchid Romance and Moonlight in Paris. This makes me so excited for next year....as I stare at the whole other side of the yard needing to be weeded...

Placed my order as soon as I could get to the computer. Moonlight in Paris and Tiffany were already sold out! Drat! I got Liv Tyler and Princesse Charlene as substitutes. And I did manage to snag Marc Chagall, which amazed me.

My order:

Bolero x3

Liv Tyler

Marc Chagall

Mellow Yellow

Princesse Charlene de Monaco

Twilight Zone

Suzanne, you will love Princess Charlene. She is marvelous! This just made me even more excited about Palatine on the 14th :)

I ordered Evelyn, South Africa, Plum Perfect, Easter Basket, and Scentuous. Now I need to figure out where I will plant them.

Mas, I hope that you love plum perfect as .much as I do

Easter Basket looked very tempting

Thank you, Kristine! It was actually my toddler who chose it. He asked me for a purple rose.
My friends grows Easter Basket and loves it so o know it will do well here. I just checked, there are a few left of you still want to order one. :)

@Kristine LeGault 8a pnw thanks for the nice comment! What else was on your list that you had to skip over this time? Ps your Bolero is beautiful

@MasLovesRoses_z8a GA I chuckle when I read "I ordered... Now I need to figure out where I will plant them. " So, I'm not the only one. I have so much empathy with that! I need to find spots for a couple I ordered, but I'm already looking at some others... It's so adorable that your toddler chose one. I'm sure my kiddos would love to choose one too, but I guess I'll first have a list that I'd be alright with before letting them "choose" ;-)

Northlandyogi, I should be joining Plant Hoarders Anonymous. I have so many plants waiting for spots that I’ve acquired during plant sales over the summer that is not even funny. So, I’m scrambling to find spots for them plus the roses that I’ve ordered plus the ones I plan to order.

Yes! He likes to ‘help’ me garden. He always asks for purple flowers though. 😂

Sunny. I have heard really great reviews for Life of The Party so that is one that I would like to grow and Mango Veranda and cream Veranda

But I have 80 so I really don't need anymore roses but because I am addicted I keep ordering with no place to put them.

I ordered 7 roses from Regan around noon today. Honestly, I only order hard-to-get rose from them, b/c I think their prices are extremely high for bare roots. Their normal bare root prices are either $23 or $27, with a $5 per rose shipping fee. The other thing that bothers me is that I am in Santa Barbara, CA, 5-6 hours down the road from them, and their earliest ship date is late Feb, which is extremely late for us for bare roots. I requested earlier, and I can't remember if they complied with this last time I ordered from them 2 years ago. But I got a lot of rare and wanted roses for about $31 per rose, which nowadays is normal. Papa Meilland was already sold out, and I think I got the last Honey Dijon. About the same as RU's normal prices, and about the same for Heirloom's sales. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my local nursery will still carry the other ones I want!

I was thinking that February might be too late for me too, Also, by the time I checked the web site three of my wishlist were already sold out. I was surprised because I thought the newly introduced roses would be sold out first. I was planning to order 4. Since 3 ( Pope John, Moonstone, Neptune) were out, so I did not order anything yet.

I was really fortunate that I decided to check my email earlier in the day than I normally do. As I added roses to my cart, I was nervous on some that had really low numbers available listed, so I worked fast. Somewhere in my records, I'm sure I have a notation of when I received my Regan bare roots two years ago, but finding it might be a problem. My gut recollection is that they didn't wait until late Feb.

@susan9santabarbara Regan receives bare root roses from different growers and ship them out when they receive most of the roses. Spring of this year, depend on the roses you order, some customers received their orders early while other had to wait when all the roses of their orders came in. You can give them a call around February to make sure they ship your roses out at the earliest. They normally give me a call when all my roses are ready to pick up, and I will pick up on that weekend. Helen

Exactly, Helen, particularly when it comes to places like Hortico that they get bare roots from, who are known to be sketchy and often late! I did just go back through my emails from 2 years ago, and found that I placed my Regan order on 9/15/18, and the window of shipping they offered was 1/15/19-the end of April 2019. I obviously chose the earliest date. They shipped my roses on 1/21/19 and I received them on 1/23/19. I just find it odd that this year, the first shipping date they offer is late February. Perhaps they're just covering themselves to avoid multiple shipments. I really hope they send them asap, because at $5 per bare root (very light weight), that more than covers the cost, but probably not the labor :-D

@MimiPNW Good question! To get the most most accurate answer is to call PalatineRoses. However, my guess is the price difference between CAD and USA on their website is not a straight money conversion but is more about how expensive to bring a rose to a Canadian customer vs to a US customer (additional certifications and services). Please correct me if I am wrong. Helen

@stangler Palatine roses are great quality. you might get a faster response to your question via email but I believe Helen is right on point with all the extra inspection and certifications needed for the plants to enter the US.

On their website under "shipping to the US" it states why the price is high for US shipping.

Have you got the impression that Regan reduced their varieties?

@pricklycuttingnoca What makes you feel that way? Helen

I looked at the customer uploaded pictures on Regan website, got interested in a couple, namely Touch of Class, Sentimental, they are not listed now.

I didn’t intend to buy so many but I ordered 6 roses from them yesterday. I went with The Alnwick Rose, Queen of Sweden, Poseidon, Love Song, Heathcliff, and I think I got the last Falstaff. So excited for Spring! I have a Palatine order going in on Monday too. I’m new to roses but I wonder if I’ll ever have enough? 😬

Ordered 3 roses... Marc Chagall, Love song, the last of the Distant drums:)

So excited!

I am having second thoughts about Marc Chagall. I prefer pastels.. Is Marc Chagall garish pink or is it a more pleasing shade of pink. Anyone who has the rose, can you please let me know. Thanks!

@mysticwaves_zone7a You can check out Marc Chagall pics on HMF and see if you like the colors https://www.helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=2.71521&tab=36 . I love them. Helen

Regan’s called me last week to tell me they couldn’t ship to Mississippi. I’m so bummed! I hate losing all those roses that were on my list. A local nursery has Sweet Spirit sothats a plus. This was just unexpected. Honestly I was most excited about Easy Does It. This one had been on my wishlist for years. Also, another local nursery has some Brindabellas but they lost the tags so won’t know the colors for another few weeks. I’ll probably pick up a few sweet spirits and a few brindabellas to cover what I would have received from regan’s. Has this happened to anyone else? Just don’t know why they waited so long to contact me when I ordered first thing in Sept.

Regan’s said they couldn’t ship to Mississippi because of agriculture restrictions
