Henry Street 2 year Guarantee
Having grown roses as a family for over 100 years, we are confident that any rose you buy from us will thrive in your garden.
Henry Street Nursery offer a 2 year guarantee with any roses bought from this website or through our garden centre. If you experience any issues with the establishment of roses purchased from us within the first 2 years of planting please send pictures to roses@henrystreet.co.uk or call our team on 0118 9761223 to speak to a member of our team.
Henry street reserve the right to offer a direct replacement, alternative rose, additional care advice to give the existing plant more time to grow or a full refund for any roses covered by the rose guarantee.

Shipping & Returns
Delivery cost £2.49 per order. Delivery 2-3 working days.
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 1454 reviewsA beautiful shrub rose with a vibrant colour. The plant I received from Henry Street was excellent. Healthy, good clear foliage and lots of buds.
This beautiful rose was packed carefully and received safely and quickly. It was much appreciated by the recipients we gifted it to. I can recommend Henry Street
I am absolutely delighted with the rose. It arrived on time and the rose was in a good condition. However, the cardboard packaging was rather battered in transit.
I had not ordered from you before. But service was good, packaged well. Totally thrilled and surprised to get a glossy green bush, with several buds ready to open. I bought two, the other for a present. Both are flowering, the colours as described and scented perfectly. Rare to find such a company.
The plant arrived very quickly, also this was a lovely healthy specimen plant.
Such a fantastic rose looks so healthy glossy leaves and LOTS of buds.Ive bought from you before this rose was for my daughter she loves it.Great service thank you
Beautiful scented rose arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Would definitely recommend this nursery.
I was looking for something different with an unusual colour. This naranga climbing rose ticks all the boxes. Delivered on time, in perfect condition and making an instant impact in my garden.
ARRIVED IN GOOD CONDITION, NO DAMAGE AND IS NOW IN FLOWER IN MY FRONT GARDEN.
My rose plant arrived within a couple of days of my order..Well packaged against damage in transit.My climbing rose was in a fresh and healthy condition, and is already growing in my garden. Excellent quality rose.
Excellant quality. Thank you Henry Street.
Absolutely fantastic delivery and dispatch I ordered the same rose from Sarah Raven it never arrived and then they cancelled the order Henry Street 10 out of 10 highly recommended
Carnt wait till it grows and starts to bloom
Plant arrived well packaged, quickly and was in the most wonderful condition. Would highly recommend Henry Street.
Rose came with two huge flowers that smell divine. Super fast delivery and much healthier than roses I’ve bought from other famous suppliers of roses. All in all great service. Initially there was an issue which was resolved immediately. Will buy with confidence again.
The rose arrived in excellent condtion . I planted it the next day in its prepared location and have kept it well watered. It is still looking healthy. It is not growing yet as it has only been in for about two weeks and is getting used to its new location/climate.
I sent this to a very dear, old friend for her birthday. I sent it a little earlier and she messaged me to say that she was delighted and that the rose arrived with many healthy buds. On the day of her birthday, she sent me a photo and the first bud had opened! It’s a very beautiful rose and I am very impressed with the quality of the plant and the service (including a hand-written note). Definitely recommend this company!
I bought this rose with gift money from a dear friend who lives in France as I wanted to feel her near me when she was so far away. It arrived within a couple of days of ordering, well packed and very healthy-looking. I put it in a pot and within a few days it had beautiful flowers and loads of buds on it. Very pleased with my purchase!
Lovely strong healthy rose , my friend was very happy. Thank you.
Rose arrived upside down in its box with courier tape all over it. When I questioned this Henry Street did not want to know! Rose was damaged but I had to cut off damaged stems as was for a birthday the next day. They said they had taken it up with the courier but because I had only taken photos of the damaged box and not the rose itself they could not do anything! Dreadful customer service, would not recommend this company!
This was a gift for a special friend and although I haven’t seen it my friend reliably tells me it is beautiful. They were very pleased with it and it is now got a special place in their garden. Thank you will order from you again
