Whether planted as a centerpiece or used for cut-flower magic, this rose brings luxury, performance, and vibrant presence to any space.

Preparing or storing before planting

Never allow your bare root roses to dry out. Open the box as soon as your rose arrives and soak the roots in clean water for at least 24 hours, and up to 48 hours if you can’t plant straight away. Don’t cut the roots: they are the plant’s energy reserve.

Planting instructions

Once your bare roots have soaked in water for at least 24 hours, plant immediately in a container or in the ground. Make sure to bury the crown of the plant 2 to 3 inches below the soil level.

First season watering and care

Watering your bare root rose the first year is vital while your rose is establishing. We recommend a 2 to 3 inch layer of mulch, a drip line and careful monitoring.

I don’t know what I was expecting really but the size of the roots on this plant was awesome! The roots were like 2 feet long at the longest.

The bare root roses arrived well packaged and moist. You can see new growth on the canes, an indication that the rose is waking up. The bare roots have massive long anchor roots, some more than 2 feet long.
