Thanks for letting us know! $14 is a good price for a gal size. I'd love to see more family run nurseries have good roses and good prices.

Remember that it only takes a moment to look up on line the city of Edon, Ohio. Then call a number to check on this business to be sure it is still there. Dave's Garden Watch Dog has had nothing on this nursery since 2006. It's your money buyer beware!

Thanks VV

He is a small family business. He works with Andy at the flowering shrubs farm here in Voorheesville NY.

He accepts a money order or a check. All my roses small farms like this.

He made the website himself too like Andy on the flowering shrubs farm website.

Sam, Can you list the small farms you ordered roses from? Thanks

There is another family nursery called: Joy Creek Nursery. They have roses for $12.50 each. I just ordered some.

Sorry, Patti. I didn't think to mention that I had spoken to them last year when they were done shipping for the year. They update their website, which gives their current roses of 2017. They grow over 200 varieties, but apparently only offer so many at a time. I suppose if one called, they may offer others.

Sam and Ritausma, that is thrilling that you've dealt with them before. I would also be interested if any of your small growers do mail-order, Sam. I just wonder how many others we're missing.

ritausma, Rose Fire has a rose I want to order. Would it be a good idea to call first to check on availability or ought I to just mail a check?

There is another small rose nursery in upstate NY named Old Market Farm. They have a very interesting selection of roses for cold climates, and also raise Icelandic sheep. Apparently they are selling this year through an Etsy store which is supposed to open in March.

Roses Unlimited is my favorite and Ashdown too.

Mcnastarana, you
could email or call to reserve a rose. They start shipping in April.

Hope this helps:

Ordering Information.

Thank you, Ritausma.

This nursery is actually very close to where I live.

Unfortunately, as I mentioned on a previous post, I have not ordered from them nor scheduled a visit because the one time I called several years ago I was answered by a curt, grouchy man. He did not seem interested in helping me at all.

Perhaps I should try again- it is only about a 45 minute drive, and Edon Road itself (M49 in Michigan) is about twelve miles east of me.

Best of luck!

Steven

For $14 each rose, I won't care if he is grouchy or not , I'd be very happy to pick up some nice roses there. :-)

I called Rose Fire. The man with whom I spoke couldn't have been nicer. I just sent a check for two roses I want, and two more alternates in order of preference. Probably, in Feb., he is not very busy and has time to chat.

Perhaps that is the case.

I'm glad your encounter was much more positive!

Steven
