A bare root rose is a rose plant that is sold in a dormant state, with no soil or container around its roots. This type of rose is sold during late winter or early spring, when it is still dormant and can be safely transported without damaging the plant. Once received, a bare root rose should be planted promptly to ensure it breaks dormancy naturally in the garden. While the rose may look "dead" we promise it is just taking its winter nap. With a little sun, water and TLC, you will have a beautiful rose blooming in no time!

The grade of the rose is the size of the rose when it is harvested from the growing field. The grades reflect different features of the rose including: the number of canes a rose must have, the size of the canes, and where the measurements to size them are taken. Grafted and own root roses are classified in different categories for the purpose of grading standards by the American Standard for Nursery Stock (ANSI). Grafted roses are graded in the category "Roses" (Section 6) and own root roses are graded in the category "Deciduous Shrubs" (Section 3). Grafted roses are 2 year old plants and own root roses are 1-1 1/2 year old plants. Grade 1 roses are the top grade most expensive; prices decrease by grade accordingly. Choosing a grade and rootstock type really depends on your personal preference and budget.

Grafted Grade 1 have three canes branched no higher than 3 inches above the bud graft and measure at least 5/16 inch in diameter.

Grafted Grade 1.5 roses are one step down. A grade 1.5 grafted rose has at least two strong canes and measures at least 5/16 inch in diameter.

Grafted Grade 2 roses are the smallest grade. They have one 5/16-inch cane and at least one at 1/4 inch diameter.

Own Root Roses Grade 1 from our collection have at least three canes and no requirement for cane diameter measurement or height. They are graded in the deciduous shrubs category and may have canes that are smaller in diameter as well as be smaller in overall plant size (height & spread) than their grafted rose siblings of the same grade, but will quickly grow into full size thriving rose plants often eclipsing grafted plants in overall plant size.

Grafted roses, also called budded roses, are roses that have a top stock variety and a bottom stock variety. The shoots, aka canes, that grow above the ground are a different variety than the roots that grow below ground. The top stock is “grafted” or attached/fused to the bottom stock so they grow together as one plant. Why is this done? The bottom stock variety is grafted to the top stock to make the rose hardier and more healthy. Bottom stock is selected to help the rose, which may not survive well on its own roots, have improved hardiness, disease resistance, and resistance to adverse weather conditions. Grafted roses are harvested when the plant is two years old.

Own root roses are roses grown from a single variety cutting that develops its own root system. Unlike grafted roses, both their roots and shoots/canes come from the same variety of plant. Their roots often look like gnarled twisted trees and that is perfect normal. Own root roses are harvested when the plant is 1-1.5 years old.

Not all roses are available as own root and grafted. Use the "Roses by Rootstock" filter on our bare root rose collection pages to search for your desired rootstock type that are available in the current year's collection. The filter is the BEST way to see what rose is offered in each type of rootstock for this season's collection on launch day so you can easily find roses in your preferred rootstock to save to your wishlist. 

Our available rootstock types by variety change each year with every collection so we list BOTH rootstock options as selections on our individual rose product pages (even if it isn't available in the current year's collection) for clarity to the purchaser when they add a rose to their cart. We do add inventory throughout the season and it is possible that additional rootstock types will be available later in the season.
