I'm truly fed up with Rogue Valley and I doubt that I'll ever order anything from them again. Last April I bought five roses from them. As always, none of them bloomed the first season. The roses from Rogue Valley never do, in contrast to the band roses I buy from Northland and Vintage. Tipu's Flame, which I bought in the gallon size because I like it so much, is supposed to look like this:

A nice red blend with a silver reverse, with beautifully shaped, high-centered blooms. The one from Rogue Valley finally bloomed and it looks like this:



Not even close! The other four I ordered last April still haven't bloomed, but I'm not expecting more than half to be the correct rose.

More than half of the mislabeled roses in my garden came from Rogue Valley.
