Beware...this company is run by a couple who have a history of jail time for business scams and took thousands of orders and did not ship. Ran out of money to give refunds...Stay away.

Can you document that assertion? Because if you can't, why ought I to believe it?

Absolutely,.....do a quick google search of Nate and Tess Fisher.. I wouldn't waste my time warning people if it wasn't true, but please go ahead and order from them and find out for yourself..? Check out FB Rose Vender Feedback and you will have all the info you need....years and years of multiple scams and jail time.

Good morning!
If I cannot find Evelyn, what should I try next? Zone 6a Coastal Massachusetts. This is for a prominent location in my yard. I am on a corner lot, and these will go on the corner where people walk by and drive by daily. Montauk daisies in the background bloom late August. Spring tulip bulbs bloom at the (hopefully ) soon to be planted roses. I am on several wait list for Evelyn. I was hoping to get huge bare roots this spring from Grace Farm Roses. Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Colleen

Northland Rosarium has 'Polka'. It is a bit more apricot than 'Evelyn' and does not have quite the ethereal beauty of the latter, but also I think is healthier and, as I recall, has better foliage. It makes a spectacular shrub and would be a good choice for a corner location. Northland has kept their prices below $25., and their roses are selling out quickly. I have always received healthy and strong rose bushes from Northland.

You have a point Nastarana, as for the health of both roses. You mean Polka as in MEItosier, I suppose.
One should consider the brutal prickles of Polka, when placing it in a corner location. (see my photo's of the prickles on HMF)
When ColleeninMhd is set on a real climber and an Austin, maybe consider Abraham Darby too.

Not looking for a climber. But Abraham Darby is always on my list.

I don't mean to hijack the discussion (indeed, I would love to find a good supplier for 'Evelyn' too), but unfortunately I can't say I had a good experience ordering from Northland Rosarium. Indeed, of the forty-one roses I've ordered from fourteen different sources, the four weakest roses I ever received were the four I got from Northland Rosarium. None has died -- yet -- but they were definitely of poorer quality. Perhaps I just had a uniquely bad experience...

A new company called Garden Roses LLC is offering 'Evelyn', listed as AUSaucer for something like $20.99. They have quite a list of non and off patent Austin roses, not alas, the ones I want. 'Windrush', anyone? 'Charmain'?

I just looked up Garden Roses LLC and it is an exciting new nursery offering band-sized plants at reasonable pricing. The credentials of the founder/owner are outstanding, he is a rising star in the rose world and shows much promise as a hybridizer, as well as a purveyor of selected current rose offerings, including many Austins. I'm sure I will be ordering for spring 2024 from this nursery. I'm also going to contact the nursery directly to suggest uploading their plant list to HMF.

So, you believe this is a reputable company and one can confidently order from them? IDK about photos, also IDC, but someone has done their homework with regard to patents. 'Bathsheba', for example, is a recent introduction patented in some countries but not in the USA. I hope they will in future add 'Windrush' to their lineup.

I haven't ordered yet, but I intend to, so will assess once the plants arrive. I have a good frame of reference for band size roses from ordering many in the past, notably from High Country Roses. Regarding Austin patents, the site (Garden Roses LLC) has a downloadable Austin list with categories of patents, it's quite interesting!

Oh. I listen to Nate Fisher the owner of Garden Roses on Rosechat! I also put in an order for several of these particular roses a few month ago. I didn’t know they would be bands. But the price is very reasonable. I also love that he is close by in Pennsylvania therefore the shipping will not be horrible for the plants. Now, to find the right spots to plant my dream roses. If Nate is reading this, well done!
Edit: I asked for refund on all GRLLC. All my orders are canceled.

Colleen: You have a beautiful house !! I grow 160 own root fragrant roses for the past 30+ years and OWN ROOTS are better in CONTINOUS blooming for a corner lot than grafted-on-Dr.Huey. My 12th-year own root Evelyn bloomed in early May in my zone 5, versus roses grafted on Dr.Huey don't bloom until later. My Evelyn is a short shrub with fast repeat, Prairieville Prince (big and thorny bush, myrrh scent), Summer Sun (gaudy color that's seen far away), Wise Portia, Royal Jubilee (can smell its fabulous scent 5 feet away), Lady of Shalott and Kordes roses like Bliss Parfuma. Ping-Lim roses sold at Lowe's are continuous bloomers. All Ping-Lim roses are impressive at zone 5 rose parks such as My girl, Calypso, and Kashmir.

Posting on July 18, 2023. One Love Farms recently acquired the formerly illustrious Chamblee's Rose Nursery, a wonderful, honorable nursery under the original Chamblee family since 1953. About 6 years ago, Chamblees sold to a second owner, and it carried on quite well, although I would say less successfully than with the founders. Now, One Love Farms has taken ownership of this nursery brand. In a few short months, they have run this company into the ground. They take online orders for roses, with payment, and then do not ship the plants, with no emails, phone calls, explanations, etc. The phone does not answer, it goes into an anonymous voice mail. They do not respond to emails. They simply take people's money. The consumer review website Yelp.com is filling up with bewildered people who have ordered from Chamblees (aka the One Love Farms ownership), who have all been scammed by this company. I have been 'taken' for $168 this past May for 5 roses that were paid for, but never shipped. I have subsequently filed claims with the BBB (Better Business Bureau), the Texas Attorney General's Office, and the Federal Trade Commission consumer affairs fraud department, as well my credit union -- still waiting for a resolution. All that to say, that 'One Love Farms' is a NO LOVE operation, whether they be operating as Chamblee's, or as this other online nursery. Please STAY AWAY from these people, they are BAD NEWS. PS: HMF Admin, you should REMOVE this company from the database!

Any other members who have had issues in dealing with One Love Farms? They have the same address as Chamblees in Dallas, TX. On Google maps there are no significant facilities at that address,

I purchased two 1-gallon roses from One Love Farms in August 2023. I am very happy with my order. They sent healthy, well branched plants that are still thriving in my garden. Both arrived with flower buds, which I pinched off immediately. I normally do this on young plants so the rose plant will focus more on growth than flowers. Both roses are still doing great. These plants are not as big as the 1 gallon roses from Heirloom Roses, but these were also half the cost of Heirloom's roses. Some places sell small bands for what I paid for these 1 gallons. Great branching, pristinely healthy plants, and great price. I will buy from them again.

If One Love Farms is NOT the same ownership as Chemblee's, they need to come out of the woodwork and explain why they have identical addresses. If they ARE the same ownership as Chamblee's, I understand why they are hiding out. The latest review re: Chamblee's on Yelp is from today, 9/11/23: No products are shipped after payment. See the BBB website for others reporting this company as scammers. An 8/18/23 review on BBB reads as follows: Buyer beware! Cole and Raul scam buyers thousands of dollars by taking deposits and never deliver. Lies after lies. They know how to play these games well. If you click on the profile for One Love Farms here, Cole and Raul Campbell are listed as owners. How did these two names end up in a Chamblee's review on BBB?

Does anyone know about the vase life of the blooms, ie whether Secret makes a good cut flower?

Bred from Pristine, so count on a short vase life. It does not last very long on the bush either
