Available year-round through floral wholesalers worldwide, Alexandra Farms garden roses bring romance and artistry to floral design.
Why Alexandra Farms
- They grow on the fertile savanna high in the Andes mountains of Colombia, northeast of Bogotá, where warm days and cool nights are ideal for garden roses.
- Every stem is grafted, harvested, graded, bunched, and packed by hand. Because their farms sit close to the Equator at about 8,700 feet, their greenhouses need no heating, cooling, or artificial lighting, which lowers their carbon footprint. They fertilize their garden rose bushes with compost and chicken manure.
- Every Alexandra Farms garden rose starts in their trial greenhouse. Each year, they test hundreds of varieties from breeders around the world, each with its own color, shape, and fragrance. Over three to four years, they evaluate the most promising on productivity, vase life, ability to travel well across the globe, and more. Only the very best earn a place in their collections.
Assortments
- More than 85 varieties of garden roses, dahlias, and accent flowers (74 garden roses across four collections, plus 12 dahlias and a selection of accent flowers).
