    Guarantee

    At Highgarden Roses, we stand behind the quality of our plants. If your rose fails to survive within the first 100 days, we'll make it right with a replacement store credit equal to the purchase price.

    To qualify, the rose must show clear signs of failure to survive (e.g., brown, brittle canes, or no living green tissue). Seasonal changes such as leaf drop, temporary transplant shock, or winter dormancy are not covered, as these are part of a rose's natural growth cycle.

    Please report any concerns within 100 days by emailing us with your order number and photos with the name tag. We will issue store credit equal to the replacement cost of the rose, excluding taxes and shipping. Store credit can be used on any future purchases, excluding gift cards, and does not expire.

    Replacement coverage is limited to one replacement claim per order. Once a replacement store credit has been issued for an order, no additional replacement claims or credits will be provided for that same order.

    Gorgeous and healthy

    I bought a size L own-root and potted it exactly two months ago. Just this week it has bestowed upon me its first bloom - an absolute UNIT of a bud, perfect form and color and a divine fragrance. I’m so impressed, I’ve never seen a more beautiful white rose (I have 60+ roses). Highgarden, as usual, delivers quality plants.

    Possibly the Best White Wedding Rose I’ve ever seen!

    I’ve had this rose White O’Hara for about 7 months now and it was a small little thing when I got it with just 2 canes, it grow fairly fast and is now 4x the height it was when received, hasn’t bloomed alot yet but the blooms I have gotten off of it so far have been nothing less then divine! They are fairly large, smell WONDERFUL, last quite a while on the bush, long stemmed and have interesting shades of pink, cream, white and green all on the same flower. It is also highly resistant to disease which is another added bonus. I ripped out a “The Finest” & “Sugar Moon” rose I had in this spot previously and replaced them with this because it’s SO much better in every way. Looking forward to many years of enjoyment from this variety and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good healthy fragrant long stemmed white rose for their gardens 👍

    Hi James,

    It's fantastic to hear about your positive experience with your rose! It’s great that it has grown so much in just seven months and that you're enjoying the divine blooms with their beautiful shades and wonderful fragrance. The resistance to disease is definitely a big plus, and it sounds like you made a great choice in replacing your previous roses. Wishing you many more years of enjoyment and stunning blooms from this lovely variety!

    If you ever need anything else or have any questions, feel free to reach out. Thanks again for choosing Highgarden Roses!

    The plant came looking really rough and almost dead with crunchy leaves and the root ball was shrink wrapped. I’ve planted it in a 5 gallon pot as of now but it’s still struggling.

    Hi Riddhi,

    Thank you for sharing your concerns. In the PNW area, especially as fall sets in, we experience a noticeable drop in sunlight. This can sometimes cause roses to lose some leaves during transit, especially since they’re packed in a box and miss out on sunlight for a few days.

    The good news is that as long as the canes are still green, they have a strong chance of bouncing back quickly with some time to settle in. If you’re at all concerned, please don’t hesitate to send us a few photos – we’d love to evaluate and give you tailored advice. And just to reassure you, if there are any further issues and the plant doesn’t make it, we’re more than happy to provide a replacement.

    If you ever need anything else or have any questions, feel free to reach out. Thanks again for choosing Highgarden Roses!

    Best regards,

    Hi! I’m interested in your White O’Hara rose and wanted to confirm a detail before purchasing.

    Could you please confirm that this is the true White O’Hara cultivar (Delbard), and not a similar variety sometimes sold under the Chinese name “白荔枝” (White Lychee)? I’ve seen some plants imported from China labeled this way and want to make sure I’m getting the correct, true-to-type rose.

    Also, is your stock propagated from verified plants in the US rather than imported?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Highgarden Roses

    Hi Volha,

    Thank you so much for your interest and thoughtful question, we completely understand wanting to be sure you’re getting the true variety.

    Yes, our White O’Hara is the authentic cultivar (Delbard), not the variety sometimes referred to as White Lychee.

    All of our stock is propagated here in Portland from verified, true-to-type plants, we do not import from overseas sources.

    Please feel free to reach out if you have any other questions, we’re happy to help!

    Warm regards,
    Argel

    FAQs

    Where do you ship to?

    We ship to all 50 states within the US from our licensed nursery in Portland, Oregon.

    Due to restrictions on plant export, we do not ship outside of the US at this time.

    How much does shipping cost?

    We offer free standard USPS Ground Advantage shipping for orders over $150.

    For orders less than $150, a flat fee of $15 will be applied.

    How soon will I receive my order?

    Processing time

    • In-stock: typically ship within 10 business days.
    • Pre-order: usually require an additional 6–10 weeks before shipment.

    Combined shipments
    If your order includes both in-stock and pre-order items, they will be shipped together once all items are ready. Requesting separate shipments may result in additional shipping fees.

    Estimated transit times (after dispatch)

    • USPS Ground Advantage: 3–5 business days
    • USPS Priority Mail: 2–3 business days
    • UPS 3 Day Select: 3 business days

    Please note: Delivery timeframes are estimates only. While we make every effort to dispatch orders promptly, we are unable to guarantee exact delivery dates due to potential carrier delays or adjustments needed to ensure plant health. Certain roses may require additional time to reach optimal shipping condition, particularly during seasonal transitions.

    In rare instances, shipments may be temporarily held due to extreme weather to protect plant quality.

    Can you postpone shipment?

    If your weather is not suitable for planting, you can choose to delay shipment for up to 12 months at no cost.

    Please choose a date on the bottom of the shopping cart before checkout to indicate your preferred ship month.

    Are your roses own-root or grafted?

    Over 95% of our roses are own-root, propagated from cuttings.

    Occasionally we may offer a grafted version for newer varieties. They are specified in the product description.

    Are your roses potted or bare root?

    You will receive a healthy rose bush. The roots will be protected by plastic wrap.

    We may defoliate and prune the stems prior to shipping. As a result, your rose bush may not come with leaves or flower buds. It will form new shoots and buds once planted in soil.

    In winter months, we may elect to ship your rose with little or no soil as they are dormant.

    What is the difference between S, M, and L?

    We offer multiple sizes of rose bushes:

    S: Your rose is 4-6 months old, grown in 4" pots.

    M: Your rose is 1 year old, grown in 6" pots.

    L: Your rose is 1.5-2 years old, grown in 8"-10" pots.

    Individual sizes may vary depending on the variety of the rose.

    What are the differences between florist and garden roses?

    Florist roses are typically bred for cut-flower use — they have long, straight stems, large symmetrical blooms, and a longer vase life, making them ideal for bouquets and arrangements. Garden roses, on the other hand, are grown for planting outdoors — they offer a wider variety of shapes, colors, and fragrances, often with more petals and a softer, more natural look, but they usually have shorter stems and a shorter vase life compared to florist roses.

    What is your return policy?

    Due to the nature of live plants, we currently do not accept returns.

    If your rose fails to survive within the first 100 days, we'll make it right with a replacement store credit equal to the purchase price.

    To qualify, the rose must show clear signs of failure to survive (e.g., brown, brittle canes, or no living green tissue). Seasonal changes such as leaf drop, temporary transplant shock, or winter dormancy are not covered, as these are part of a rose's natural growth cycle.

    Please report any concerns within 100 days by emailing us with your order number and photos with the name tag. We will issue store credit equal to the replacement cost of the rose, excluding taxes and shipping. Store credit can be used on any future purchases, excluding gift cards, and does not expire.

    Replacement coverage is limited to one replacement claim per order. Once a replacement store credit has been issued for an order, no additional replacement claims or credits will be provided for that same order.

    Do you sell roses year round?

    All of our roses are grown outdoors in Portland, Oregon.

    We ship all 12 months of the year.

    Roses can be planted at any time except during extreme heat or cold. 

    You can order your rose anytime and choose to delay shipment for up to 12 months.

    Our roses are shipped semi-dormant in November, dormant from December to February, semi-dormant in early March, and non-dormant for the rest of the year.

    Do you offer in-person pickup?

    Unfortunately we do not offer in-person pickup at this time.

    Are you a licensed nursery?

    Yes we are a licensed nursery registered with the Oregon Department of Agriculture.

    Are you affiliated with rose breeders or third party growers?

    All roses on this website are grown by Highgarden Roses.

    The names of roses and breeders mentioned on our website are used solely for comparison purposes.

    Highgarden Roses does not own the trademarks for these rose names, nor are we affiliated with, endorsed by, or licensed by any third-party companies, breeders, or growers.

    I sent a message but haven’t received a response. What should I do?

    Please allow 1–2 business days for a response. In the meantime, check your spam/ junk folder and make sure your inbox isn’t full. If you still don’t hear from us after 2 business days, please resend your message or email us from another address.

    Why does my rose look smaller than expected?

    Our roses are own-root (not grafted). Grafted roses can look bigger faster because they’re grown on a vigorous rootstock, while own-root roses often start smaller as they establish. The upside is long-term: an own-root rose grows from its own variety from roots to canes, can be more resilient if it’s cut back or stressed, and you won’t get unwanted rootstock shoots. We also offer multiple sizes - our Small size is band-size, which is naturally petite by design.

    For safe shipping and stronger growth, we may prune canes and reduce top growth before sending. Pruning helps the plant focus energy on rooting, and it also encourages new breaks and branching, which leads to a fuller plant over time. With proper planting and care, your rose will settle in, push fresh growth, and size up.

    How often do you restock your roses?

    We restock our roses every week. New plants are added regularly depending on availability and season. You can also sign up for a “Back in Stock” alert on the product page. Just make sure to choose the exact size you want so you’ll be notified when it’s available again.
