Shipping & Returns
Delivery cost £2.49 per order.
We use DPD for all our deliveries, upon dispatch you will receive an email confirming your rose has been shipped and providing you updates through delivery confirming estimated time of arrival.
Unfortunately due to updated plant health requirements following Brexit we are only able to ship to Mainland (including Isle of White) UK excluding Northern Ireland.
Our standard delivery is 1 - 3 days from point of order although may be extended in busy periods. We do not post roses on Fridays. As our roses are live plants we sometimes delay sending in extreme cold or heat to avoid them perishing due to extended delivery times.
How will my rose arrive
We have specially designed boxes to ensure any roses bought from us will travel safely to your home.
Our new crop of roses are dispatched from October and will arrive as newly potted bare root plants. These are ok to be planted out straight away or you can wait till the rose has started rooting in and plant in the spring. We feel that sending potted roses ensures you receive the best product as the rose remains well in moist compost through the journey and when planting you have a pot of our special blend of compost to get your rose off to the best of start.
In spring our roses will still be very small to look at but will have rooted into the pot and will be showing strong young growth.
May - September we will do our best to send out roses in flower or in bud but this will depend on the growing season as we may have to cut back the plant to keep them healthy with fresh growth.
How to care for Roses
All our roses arrive with our helpful rose care leaflet.
Our Rose Care pages are also a great place to look for advice on planting, pruning, feeding and caring for your roses.

Let customers speak for us
from 1098 reviewsAs this has only just arrived (Nov '24). All we have is a lovely little plant in a pot. We got this to replace an earlier version, removed during a garden make over. It arrived well packed and in excellent condition. We expect flowers next year.
I have been waiting to buy this rose for a while now. It arrived as a potted bare root, well packaged and in good condition.
Has since put on growth - can't wait to see it flower next year!
Would definitely recommend this site for ease of ordering and swift delivery.
Sent to the family of a dear friend as a memento as she loved jazz. They were thrilled and hopefully there will be masses of blooms next year. Very helpful customer service.
I was served by Peter today. He’s customer service was outstanding. He was very helpful and helped to resolve my issue.
A very well packed and protected rose in perfect condition, free of disease, in an ample size pot, and a very reasonable price as well. No hesitation in buying again!
I gave this rose to my lifelong friend for her birthday. Everything from order to delivery was perfect, quick and easy. Thanks to all at Genry Street foe exceptional service. I WILL buy again.
Arrived on time, well packed & looked healthy. That’s all I can say because I gave it to a friend as a gift
Arrived well packed and looks healthy, have now planted and will update next year 😊
Beautifully packaged, speedy delivery and great roses as always
I realise now that my first review might not have been very encouraging so here are my latest impressions: Despite me mixing my brother's fishing ground bait into the compost instead of the 'Fish, Blood & Bone' that I should have (they looked identical), the 'Rene Goscinnys' grew quite well and reached about 45cm high whilst in pots. I'm hoping they'll make 60-80cm next year (2025) when in the flower bed. 'Henri Delbard' might be a good alternative if you want a taller plant and 'Stephane Bern' (which isn't available in the UK yet) is also taller with darker flowers and possibly the bonus of very similar fragrance components to RG.
RG's flowers turned out to be striking - large filled saucers of cheerful bright orange and long-lasting on the bushes which gave me about 10 buds. - pretty good since they were off to a bad start.
The scent of just 2 open blooms (in ideal weather) was like an intense sugary peach/mango candy not typical rose at all and was detected in the air about 2 metres from the plants though a bit more faintly right inside the petals. Now that sounds illogical doesn't it? However, if you know a bit about roses you'll know that some of them don't smell so strong when you put your nostrils to the petals but even so they can spread their aroma some distance from the plant and it becomes more noticeable when mixed in the circulating air like those fireworks that 'pop!' and travel invisibly away from the original explosion and then blast out in all directions some distance away. I liked the smell more than my 'Lady Emma Hamilton' rose for example. Now I can't wait for next year's performance - with many more flowers hopefully!
Arrived very quick after my order. Updated all the time. The rose arrived very packed together with instructions
Very healthy looking both roots and canes.Look forward to its blooms.
Looks healthy with good roots and strong canes.
The package fitted perfectly for the plant I purchased, the rose 'Scent from heaven '. The plant itself was well packed and in perfect condition ready for planting. I now await the time to see it in all it's glory. Thank you Henrystreet nursery.
Trying to decide which ones are the most heavily scented and disease resistant.

Strong and healthy bush roses that I've planted and are doing well. I'll know more about the scent etc when they bloom, but having seen one before I know they are very lovely and will be a fitting tribute to my wife who adored roses.
