Guarantee

At Highgarden Roses, we stand behind the quality of our plants. If your rose fails to survive within the first 30 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, 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 30 days by emailing us with your order number and photos.

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. Replacement credits do not expire.

Distant Thunder

It arrived in good condition. Packaged well, no broken stems. I watered it and let it sit on the patio for a day and then potted it up. So far so good. Every rose I have received from heirloom has been is good healthy condition.

First rose from Highgarden, NOT the last!

Can’t say enough good things about Highgarden. I’ve never ordered a rose online before and after an attempt with another company that took my money but never sent my rose, I was hesitant. But when I emailed them to confirm my order and ask some questions I was contacted the next day by someone who explained the whole process. Since then they have been AMAZING. My rose , an Ausjo or Jude the Obscure, arrived on Oct 1 in PERFECT condition and is now hanging out in the rose garden making new buddies! I am SO excited about this rose to add to my collection but was also scared. Again, sent an email with questions, got detailed answers, absolutely stellar.
I will ABSOLUTELY order from them again and the tough part now is which variety to order next. Thank You Highgarden for making my first online rose purchase an amazing one.

Helen Rose did not look good

When I received the roses the Helen Rose did not look good. One branch was yellow green and another branch was brown. The Jude The Obscure rose looked pretty good.

Hi Clark,

Healthy and vigorous rose!

This rose arrived in great condition and has been growing beautifully every day, even in the Georgia heat. This is my second purchase from Highgarden Roses and both are thriving in my garden.

Doing well two weeks in

Ownroot roses were not shipped bare - they had most root balls and some foliage. They are growing more quickly than bare root plants, showing new foliage within one week of being planted. Time will tell, but this looks quite promising.

Hi Jeffrey,

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We are thrilled to hear that your rose is doing well after two weeks. We take great care in shipping our semi-ownroot roses with as much root ball and foliage as possible, and we're glad to hear that they are growing quickly for you. We hope this promising start continues and your rose brings you joy for years to come. Thank you again for choosing our product. Happy gardening!

Best regards,
Argel

2nd Moab Rose with new growth

This is actually the 2nd Moab rose I both from Highgarden Roses. The first one didn’t do so well in the heat, but is still alive. I do want to mention that both came in wonderful condition though. The most recent one has new growth so I’m excited to see it mature.

Healthy roots and stem

I ordered a small size, but it was healthy. There was a little bit of dirt that got on the leaves, but overall sturdy stem and healthy roots. I can’t wait to see it grow and get bigger.

Highgarden Rose for the win!!

I love how Highgarden roses website show pictures roses in different stages and they carry a lot of own root roses even ones that are rare and retired. The website is so user friendly. I purchased over 30 roses in the last 2 years and only one died upon arrival. The customer service is wonderful; I normally get a response same day or next day. If the rose die upon arrival, they normally give you merchandise credit. They were also nice enough to also give me merchandise credit when some of my roses failed months later. So just contact them first before writing a negative review about them. I like that most of my roses still had leaves or had new growth to them and you get to choose the size. I recommend getting the medium or large since the small is very small and would need a lot of attention. My most recent orders of Aushunter, Ausstew, Auswill ,Ausimmon were so healthy and full of leaves with multiple stems and bigger than David Austin 2-quart roses. I totally one hundred percent recommend Highgarden roses.

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 $100.

For orders less than $100, a flat fee of $10 will be applied.

How soon will I receive my order?

In-stock roses are typically shipped within 10 business days. Out-of-stock varieties may be available as pre-orders with an additional 6–10 week wait time.

Kindly note that in-stock and pre-order items in the same order will be shipped together. Splitting orders may incur additional shipping fees.

Once shipped, transit time is typically:
• USPS Ground Advantage (3-5 business days)
• USPS Priority Mail (2-3 business days)
• UPS 3 Day Select (3 business days)

Please note that actual delivery times may vary. While we always aim to ship promptly, we cannot guarantee exact delivery dates due to occasional USPS delays or unforeseen changes in plant readiness. Some roses may require additional time to reach optimal health for shipping, especially during seasonal transitions.

In rare cases, we may also delay shipment due to extreme weather conditions to protect the health of your plants.

Can you postpone shipment?

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

Please leave a note on the bottom of the shopping cart 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 will defoliate and prune the stems prior to shipping. As a result, your rose bush will 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?

At Highgarden Roses, we stand behind the quality of our plants. If your rose fails to survive within the first 30 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, 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 30 days by emailing us with your order number and photos.

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. Replacement credits do not expire.

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 6 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.
