Thanks, Ken

Enabler!

I've been looking too and I shouldn't be. I really have to be very very particular. Lol. No room and at my limit. I like how nice the pictures are now too. It looks a lot clearer.

I like the bigger pictures too! They have a good selection of Austins, I would sure like to get a few started.

You can place your order now :) Please post what will be on your wish list. Helen

I just went on their website today and saw they had Eddy Mitchell rose Dark Knight available .I have been looking for that rose everywhere so i order it own root which is perfect .Problem is i also saw a lot that i been wanting but wasn't really sure (lack of space) but couldn't resist adding some so i ordered (Paradise, Pope John Paul, Neil Diamond and Ketchup and Mustard ) . Time to start planning another rose bed have Ebb Tide and Dick Clark on the way from Northland Rosarium.

Crap. I was hoping they would have the new striped rose from Certified Roses called PEACH SWIRL. They have their other new roses, SOL DESIRE, RING OF FIRE and MIRANDA LAMBERT. Well, darn, maybe our Lowes or WalMart will get it in in the bagged peat pots. Regan's prices went way up. Guess I won't be ordering any from them... (not that I need any more...)

Beth, they have Peach Swirl https://www.regannursery.com/rose/Rosa-Hybrid%20Tea-Peach-Swirl-New-2017

For some strange reason, that link doesn't work. This one may not work either:

https://www.regannursery.com/rose/Rosa-Hybrid%20Tea-Peach-Swirl-New-2017

If not, go to the "New for 2017:" page and look for the first rose on that page. It's listed only as "Hybrid tea rose," but clicking on it will take you to the Peach Swirl page.

Thank you Zuzu. I was browsing Regan's website and using my cell phone. Since there is no option to create a link in the mobile view so I just pasted the URL directly which if you copy and paste the URL directly will work. I'm on my laptop so I just updated it to a clickable link. It should work now. Helen

Hey thanks you guys. I actually emailed them a few days ago about it. Marsha Hildebrand emailed me back and said they did have it on order and forgot to add it to the website. I hadn't checked since yesterday. It still wasn't on there last time I looked tho. Guess I'm off to check it out...

Hmmmm... they seem to be having problems with the website. Some of the roses I click on take me to the alphabetical page. And I see they have PRINCESS CHARLENE DE MONACO, but you can't purchase her yet. Guess I'll wait awhile til they get the glitches worked out.

I called Regan to find out about their upcoming Labor Day sale and inquired about their long term status. The new owner of the land will be in escrow until mid-2017 so Regan can stay until then. I'm glad we have at least one more season of Regan roses!

Ann, what did you find out about the Labor Day sale? Helen

Hi Helen -

Regan always has a Labor Day weekend rose sale but the person I spoke with wasn't sure if it started Sept 1 Thursday, or Sept 2 Friday. I'll call back the last week of August or check their website or Facebook page. She said they still have a lot of Austins so that's good news. I think the sale applies to all the roses. Over the July 4 weekend, they had a sale but it only applied to roses in the "cardboard" type planters.

I've paid for roses over the phone and picked them up later which I hope they will let me do. I don't plan to drive through the holiday weekend traffic.

Ann

What is their labor day sale?

Hey Beth,. I saw Princesse De Monaco but not Charlene De Monaco. Is it really on their site? Judy. I want that one too. Judy

I see it under New for 2017. I'd like to try it as well next spring.

Whoa. To ship here to TN is cost prohibitive. Better to fly out and ship them home. OUCH.

Kelly, usually around the weekend of Labor Day, Regan has the sale 40-50% (if I remember correctly) for pickup potted roses. Helen

Thanks Dave. I see it now. I hope to get it too.

So I was in Fremont today for work and you know what else is in Fremont? Regan Nursery (at least for now). Bay area girl I appreciated your photos from Regan Nursery so much from 2015 that I thought I would take some myself to post for others. Here's a few snapshots of Regan Nursery roses in fall. These are particularly helpful if you live locally in the Bay Area because you can see real rosebushes in your local climate instead of from just marketing photos. :) Its fall so if the roses look good now, my thought process is they will most likely look great in spring. I'm a foliage fanatic so I like to focus on healthy foliage... which is good because there weren't a lot blooms this time of year.

I personally love reds and pinks so that's what most of the photos are...

***

Young Lycidas. The leaves looked a lot smaller in person. The wrinkly/wavy leaf habit didn't bother me as much on a smaller leaf. Looking pretty healthy for a large nursery (getting neglected) in fall.

Sophie's Rose. The photo is an accurate color.

Tess of the D'Urbervilles. Healthy foliage. Still budding.

Dark Lady. Pretty bloom. Most didn't look disease resistant in this climate.

Heathcliff. Most of these did look disease resistant. Healthy foliage for the most part. More upright than other Austins too.

Falstaff. Healthy foliage. Still budding. Dark green foliage. I have 3 at home. Falstaff has been a good bloomer for me so far... so this may be the right climate for it!

Benjamin Britten. Small, cute foliage looked fairly healthy. But zoom in on those thorns!

More red and pink Austins...

Huntington Rose looking pretty darn healthy.

Mary Rose.

Munstead Wood. Little leaves. Seems like it wants to spread.

Here are a few others that stood out because of their healthy foliage in the fall at Regan Nursery...

Tropical Lightening. Interesting rusty swirled color combo. Not my type of colors, but super healthy foliage. Nice if you like orange, coppery swirls.

Moondance. Super healthy looking. Very light scent.

Wild Blue Yonder looked really healthy if you like purple. Nice, strong fragrance.

Rouge Royale. Yuck! So glad I didn't order this! Definitely doesn't like this climate.

Scentimental looked pretty good for fall.

Purple Tiger had nice healthy, disease free foliage. My phone didn't pick up the purple. It's definitely a plum striped color, not fuschia like it shows in my photo.

Europeana had a habit like a bouquet at the end of long canes. Nice deep red. Light fragrance.

Dee-lish was gorgeous. Disease free foliage. Still blooming. Photo is an accurate color of the shade of pink. I didn't buy, but I came close. Only reason is I just bought Pretty Lady Rose (same color pink).

All American Magic wants to be a climber here. Some had healthy, disease free foliage, some not so much. Large leaves. Still a few blooms. Accurate color of red/white/cream turning to pink/white.

Princess de Monaco. Large buds. Really large! Healthy dark green foliage contrasts the pink/white bloom nicely. But the buds didn't look quite right... lots of pink dots and didn't seem to do well with the recent rain/sun bipolar Bay Area weather.

If you can go in person, all the roses are 50% off now. I ended up buying many I had mail ordered. Now I have mature plants for half off... and was able to cancel my mail order. They don't have Peach Swirl or Princess Charlene de Monaco in stock yet.

Enjoy the photos! :)

I missed one! Tam O'Shanter. Wants to be a climber. Pinkish rosy red shows up accurately in this photo...

Thanks Cori Ann! I needed to be near Fremont today, remembered your post and decided to go over to Regan's. The roses looked a bit tired but I did pick up The Alnwick Rose, Gentle Hermione, Young Lycidas, and Princess Anne. I planted The Alnwick Rose this evening just before it got dark in 70 degree weather. Now if we could just get a bit more rain, our gardening lives would be nearly perfect!
