I have a problem. An expensive problem. Got these this morning even though 1) I don’t NEED this many peach roses and 2) I have already ordered enough roses to last me a couple lifetimes. I wanted Mansfield Park but it sold out while I was going back and forth trying to get myself to not order lol!

Lilyfinch, love your picks! Darlington is so beautiful, I wanted that one too! And Pink O’Hara is supposed to smell amazing!

Susan, I just read an article about southern Oregon and the cartels Pot growers used to be locals who cared about the water and environment. Then we had to Mexican cartels and the danger level soared. Now, we have Chinese and Baltic country cartels taking over. Basically using slave labor and threatening anyone who tries to leave and following through, these are not nice people. They are everywhere, taking over land and water and these are ruthless greedy cartels Why does it continue? Not nearly enough agents to clear them out and it is like playing Whac a mole. There seems to be no end in sight to the illegal drug trade and trust me, pot is only one of many drugs travelling in to our valley. If I was younger I would move somewhere else but at this age starting all over sounds top daunting.

I’m in ND and in the same situation… same storms, probably, gave us 99 inches of snow this winter. I emailed Grace Rose Farms last week and my shipment is delayed shipping until next week, so I’ll probably get it Wed. Here’s what I am going to do. 1. Soak the roses in cold water for 24 hours. Thankfully by then, we will have above freezing temps during the daytime, so they should be fine in the garage. 2. I have coconut coir blocks on hand that I will add water to and make a lot of soiless mix. (DO YOU HAVE A LOWE’S OR HOME DEPOT OR MENARDS, OR HARDWARE STORE NEARBY? They will have some potting soil in large bags. Get some of that.) 3. Take a box that is not so huge that the roses will fit in. Line it with a garbage bag that has a hole cut in the bottom to let any extra water drain out, and add some soil mix in the bottom. Then put the roses at a slant so they fit in. Add soil to cover.. I make sure the soil is moist, but don’t drown the roses, and keep them in an unheated garage. Don’t let the soil get dried out. Don’t bring them in the house unless you have grow lights and that’s a whole different ball game. They should be fine until the time you plant them. I would not leave them for a very long time if they are already sprouting when they come. It’s ify because they are coming from California and will be exposed to warm temps along the way. If they are sprouted, plant them in their pots when you get them. You can always plant them in your garden after the snow is gone and it thaws enough to dig. By the way… WHAT ROSES DID YOU GET? I ordered 2 Distant Drums, Crazy Love and my free rose is Apricots N’ Cream. I’m pumped!! Happy Rose-ing in the North Country!!! Rebecca

@susan9santabarbara, Yes. Returning those huge roses is a chore. Happy to get a refund. I realize these nurseries have policies & customer service isn’t always the best occassionally. Grace R Farm looks like they have many beautiful roses & the owners seem nice. I hope to order new roses from them in the future. I see 4 beauties I love! I’m calling them to seevif ai can buy the ”new roses,” next time.

I think GRF has sold roses in very different formats over the last few years. Last year they were selling over-planted varieites from their florist fields. Those were huge mature plants that look grafted. I got Yves Piaget and Cream Yves that way. They have also sold own roots , presumabley grown by themselves. They seem to be moving toward larger plants grown in Arizona (I’m guessing by Francis Roses). My point is their product is in transition, so you might get a very different plant from someone else in the past..

Thank you for that information. You are very kind to do so. I was able to pick up a few of their latest varieties. But some of these plants are kind of expensive to say. With the shipping cost varying on your state. My collection of the roses were all retro color varieties except for the other. The neutral colored ones which did not really excite me that much. I like roses with varying shades of color. Your selection of the roses here are quite interesting. I may say to rarity and color palettes . I only brought these varieties because they were rare. And they cannot be legally propagated according to their website guidelines and what not.

Hey. You guys picked up a bundle there. It took me a while to eliminate out what I liked. These are as what you said it. Will last me for a life time because they are very expensive indeed. I got the same addiction as you guys when I first saw these plants, and never looked back. I got these instead, "West minster abbey, Pimms, Symbol, Quicksand and Yoga trendsetter". I am also keeping my fingers crossed that they will survive and bloom. Since, I haven't not grown any kind of weird florist roses like these before.

I ordered 6! Mariatheresia (Tantau) has been on my wish list for a while but the others I'd never heard of before and I'm hoping they will do ok in my garden even though they're florist roses. The promise of up to two weeks vase life sold me; I love having bouquets in the house to enjoy. You all chose some gorgeous ones! I really wanted to order almost all of them (especially Gentle Trendsetter, so pretty!) but had to stop myself. I'm excited to hear how these do for everyone.

Krystal , where are you located ? Just curious! Same zone for me .

I love all the peaches but pinks always have my heart too . I am glad she said she will offer these all again so I can get more if these are good . I’m in a similar climate as her but I believe these are grown at her partner in Arizona? Still similar.

Love all the peaches you chose !! I had a hard time picking one .

Her pics on Instagram of j’adore were unreal !

Dragon fire , where do you garden ?

You chose some very unique pretty roses! I hope they do well for you . We will have to update the thread with pics when they come and bloom ! I hope you get lots of vases of flowers !

Meg , great choices !! I really wish I had gotten Mansfield . Ugh . Maybe I’ll see if I still can 😂 . I have Maria Theresa coming from another place and I can’t wait to see how that rose is ! It looks like a winner !

I know the roses were pricy but I don’t spend money on anything else so I only feel a little guilty.

Let’s remember to share pics when we are able !

I was very tempted by the paradise beach and the delbard one -- pink ohara. But...I really don't have the room, and I'm not sure how well florist roses will do in the garden...so all of you must be our guinea pigs and report back! I hope I'm not pea green with envy in a few months...

Great welcoming news to everyone out there. There is huge sale listing of also new roses at www.menagerieflower.com try to browse over there pretty soon before their listing of this years rarest of theJalbert roses before they are sold out. They are both of are "Beverly Ann Clay Rose, and Gold and Great Rose", Plus, other favorites like singing in the rain if anymore is interested in anymore of these varieties of this collection". I managed to get the "Beverly Ann Clay Rose, and Gold and Great Rose" as a grafted. Because the own roots are already sold out within a few minute. Good griefs. I did not realize that rose shopping online was going to be this overly competitive. I saw these roses from that one lady show of the Rose geek I think a while ago. I had been keeping me eyes wide open out for these two for a while now. LOL. Just do go overboard with the shopaholic rose addictions. Good lucky to everyone.

Lilyfinch, I’m in Beaumont, not too far from Murrieta!

Yes, hoping they do well in our climate since it’s pretty similar…i keep telling myself before going back to order mansfield bare root and the O’Haras that she will have these next year too which gives us time to test these others out in our home gardens to see how they perform! I’m so excited for them!

I love that she mentioned J’Adore does well in wind since unfortunately there’s some brutal winds here. That’s a win, and she says the fragrance is intense!

Will definitely share photos once they bloom! Daydreaming about it now…

Deborah (Z10 Coastal CA) I have your exact concern. I just spent the most I have ever spent on roses from them and I still want to buy more but my practical side is saying WAIT! These are florist roses which I'm assuming are grown in green houses , how are they going to fair for outdoor gardens? Has she shared any of these florist roses growing outside? Can someone please let me know?

I received Notting Hill, Unforgettable, and Georgia Peach last year. The first two (maybe also GP but can’t remember) developed a lot of rust towards the end of the year, though the blooms were beautiful

I have several exclusives from GRF coming this spring! I don’t spray in my regular rose garden, so I have another garden made to plant them where I can spray them if they look bad. That garden won’t have any pollinator plants, and hopefully bees won’t go over there too much.

Would anyone like to share any photos of the exclusive variety blooms from your new bushes last year? I’m so excited for these!
