Weeks Roses: A Trusted Leader in Rose Growing
Since 1938, Weeks Roses has been a premier provider of beloved roses for hobbyists, garden centers, and landscape professionals across the nation. Renowned for exceptional customer service and superior plant quality, Weeks Roses stands out for its dedication to integrity and excellence in gardening. This commitment is why we collaborate with Weeks Roses in rose breeding and research.
Our Commitment to Excellence
Nurturing Roses from the Start
At its expansive 1,200-acre facility in Wasco, California, Weeks Roses combines advanced processing, refrigeration, and distribution technologies. Located near other major rose producers, the region boasts rich loamy soil, abundant clean water, and an ideal climate for commercial rose cultivation. Roses grown here adapt well to diverse American climates, and the local community thrives on rose production.
While some breeders conduct research and testing abroad, Weeks Roses keeps all its operations--including breeding and testing--within the United States. This ensures their roses meet the specific needs of American gardens.
Innovating with Award-Winning Varieties
Weeks Roses has earned a reputation for creating exceptional rose varieties and maintaining consistently high standards. Recently, Weeks secured its seventh consecutive Portland Rose Society "Best Rose" award with Smokin' Hot, a striking red hybrid tea rose celebrated for its promising disease resistance and adaptability compared to other red varieties.
