This rose is always in bloom, which makes us appreciate it
more every year. So we use it all over our gardens. Grootendorst
Supreme has clusters of dark-red, carnation-like blossoms
that provide a wonderful display of color in the garden all
summer. Its healthy, light-green, thick-leaved foliage contrasts
well with the red blossoms. It has upright growth and has
very thorny canes. It's also very winter hardy. A proven performer
and reliable addition to any garden.

What's a "bareroot" plant?
 "Bareroot"
is a term that describes how a plant is shipped to you. A
bareroot plant is not in a pot, and is usually dormant (not
actively growing). See the photo to the right that shows what
a bareroot rose looks like. The bareroot plants that we ship
to you were harvested in the fall and placed in cold storage
over the winter to keep them dormant. In the spring, we ship
the bareroot plants to our customers, from early April through
mid May.
Bareroot plants are easy to grow. We include planting instructions
with your order. When you receive your plant, take it out
of the packing material and place it in a bucket of water
so that the roots are completely covered. Let the roots soak
for 4 to 24 hours, then plant it in your garden. Full planting
instructions with photos are available on our Planting
Roses page.
