Description

Over 80% of the wholesale standard roses used in the United States are imported from some of the world's best growing regions in the mountains of Colombia and Ecuador. Equatorial sunshine, long days, and cool nights help roses grow in the rich, volcanic soil producing the long, sturdy stems and larger heads for which these roses are famous. They are widely used for wedding flowers, special events, fund-raisers and other floral decor.

Roses from Colombia and Equador have a long vase life when properly cared for. Generally longer stems mean slightly larger rose heads, but not always.

Stem Length and Uses:

The 16-inch (40cm) roses are are the shortest roses. Shorter stems make these roses ideal in arrangements where stem length is not an issue.

The 20-inch (50cm) wholesale roses from Colombia and Ecuador are our most popular size. Their longer stems and larger heads make them ideal for all arrangements and bouquets.

The 24-inch (60cm) wholesale roses are the favorite of retail flower ships for use as "long-stemmed" roses.

The 28-inch (70cm) roses are for when your requirements are for a longer stem or even larger head size.

Packing: Roses come in bunches of 25 carefully packed stems. Within each bunch, the roses are packed in two layers for protection during shipping. From a top angle, it may appear that you only have 12 stems in the bunch. However, the remaining 13 roses are in the layer below. Each bunch consists of the same color and variety rose. Stem length refers to the shortest stem in the bunch.

Prices: are subject to change due to market conditions, especially fuel surcharges due to the volatility of oil prices. These prices are not available at least four weeks before Valentine's or Mother's Day.

Flower Care

Flower Care Steps – From Arrival to Use

Step 1: Unpack and Inspect

Unpack Promptly: Open your boxes as soon as they arrive and remove any straps or outer packaging such as foam or paper. Take photos of the box labels on the ends of the boxes showing the product name, NOT the fedex labels. This is crucial in the event of any quality or other product issues.
Inspect Your Greens: Look over your products for any concerns before continuing with processing.

Step 2: Prepare the Containers

Use Clean Buckets: Choose buckets or containers that are clean and free from soap residue or bacteria. Rinse with warm water if needed.
Add Water: Fill each container with at least 4 inches of fresh, cool water. If flower food is available, follow the packet directions and mix it in.

Step 3: Trim and Place in Water

Remove Packaging: Take off any rubber bands or plastic sleeves protecting the flowers.
Remove Foliage Below the Waterline: Strip any leaves that will fall below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth.
Trim the Stems: Use clean, sharp floral shears or scissors to cut about 1 inch off each stem at a diagonal under cool running water. Avoid using household scissors, which can crush the stems and limit water absorption.
Place Immediately: After trimming, place the stems directly into the prepared water.

Step 4: Hydrate and Maintain

Hydration Time: Allow your flowers or greenery to hydrate for at least 4 hours — 8 to 12 hours is ideal.
Monitor Water Levels: Flowers drink heavily when they first arrive, so check water levels frequently and refill as needed.
Avoid Overcrowding: Ensure each container has enough space for the amount of flowers or greens you're processing. Overcrowding can lead to damaged stems and leaves.
Storage Conditions: Store hydrated greenery in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight, heat, or drafts until you're ready to use it.
