Fall has always been my favorite time of year for flowering. The cooler weather and the autumn colors inspire a symphony of colors and textures that are a floral feast to behold. We love ALL of the stunning Dahlias, heirloom mums, berries, and the plethora of beauty that comes with this season. Recently, I was scrolling through the tens of thousands of images of flowers on my phone and came across a rose, a single rose that was so amazing it totally inspired me to create this blog post this week.
Every year, I am asked about my preferences of roses, what I like and what is available for the beautiful color stories for this time of year. So I thought I would focus on my favorites for this blog post. I’ve divided the roses up by the regions from which I sourced them. I’d love to know you’re favorites!!
Heirloom Garden Roses
Californian Grown Roses
Holland Roses
South American Roses
I hope you found inspiration and acquired a few new roses along the way. Seasons and availability can vary with all of these roses. Sometimes it’s due to the high demand and only a handful of growers, so be sure to place orders early and have a substitute in mind just as a back up plan. In some cases, roses may be grown in multiple regions of the world so check with your local wholesaler, grower, or favorite online source.
