Ordered a Green Romantica rose from GVR. I have NEVER seen such a beautiful bareroot plant. It came in a huge tall box, with very, very large canes, and an extensive root system. Since my rose bed wasn't ready yet, I potted this rose, after soaking, and within 4 days it was sending out new growth.

From now on this is my only source for bareroot roses. Can't say thank you enough to Ron.

Will be placing my bareroot order for 2011 in the fall, and am just thrilled to find this new source!!

Positive is the highest praise I can give this company, so that's what they'll have to get from me. Talk about EXTREME roses! I've been burnt quite a few times (well, like 5) with getting these teensy bitsy puny little snippets of roses and figured, well, might as well try it based on recommendations from others.

And boy am I EVER glad that I did! The order was handled quickly, the shipment was sent out precisely when I requested, the box was more than enough for the size of the plants, and, lord oh mighty, the plants! Two roses barely fit in the 2' long box! MASSIVE root system, VERY well branched, THICK canes, WONDERFUL. Why on earth would I want to buy little roses locally when I can get these massive monsters for about the same price, including the shipping!

A+ in my book. I really can't figure out anything higher than that.

Another year, another perfect rose order from GVR. I've been buying roses from GVR for years now, and they have never disappointed me. I pick up my orders at the nursery and I always buy many more while I'm there. The sight of all those perfect plants with such an abundance of thick canes is impossible to resist. It's the very best source for bare-root roses on the Internet.

I HIGHLY recommend Garden Valley Ranch. Ron Robertson is a rockstar! RON FOR PRESIDENT! This was my first rose order from Garden and they are excellent in every way a vendor should be: superb communication and customer service---prompt, reliable, courteous and knowledgeable replies, beautifully packed items, top-quality plants---hearty, healthy, robust (new growth was already emerging right out of the box), an immense variety and selection..I could go on and on. This vendor cares about its customers and I would definitely encourage other gardeners to check them out first, especially when considering quality grafted roses. It should be noted they sell some own-root varieties as well. An easy 11 out of 10. Thanks, GVR!

I ordered three roses and they are the best looking bare root roses I have ever seen. They have very well developed root systems, and at least 4 large canes each. They came rapidly, well packed, and with good suggestions for planting. I am very impressed!

I ordered Austrian Copper from this company, and received a good, healthy plant in good time. Seems the origin of this plant was Weeks Roses. I would definitely recommend Garden Valley Ranch and do business with them again if I am looking for hard-to-find roses.

An excellent source for some hard-to-find roses since many of their unusual varieties not even shown on the website come from Vintage Gardens. I have shopped several times in person during special sales and the staff has been courteous and helpful.

I ordered 10 rosebushes from this company. Although I had a few anxious moments because I live in New England and was worried about storing them until it was time to plant, Mr Robertson was able to offer me some guidance. He was friendly and professional. I followed his directions and all are now thriving in the temporary planters I put them in. A few were slow to leaf out and I was a bit concerned but eventually they all leafed out and look great-very healthy! I just hope the transplant process doesn't harm them, but I feel positive about that based on how good his other advice was and how healthy they appear now. I can barely wait to enjoy the blooms!
