With the office operating from home and self-distancing applied in the field and in the shed, we certainly had to start working in a very different way. Difficult, not always as fast as usual and challenging for all of us, especially with digging season knocking at our door and all the plants ready to be lifted. But we are doing it and it's going well!
Brian and I feel very lucky because we can rely on an amazing staff, keen to give it a go always with a smile. And we feel lucky also because we have you supporting us and following what we do. For us, it's business as usual; our doors might be closed to public visits, but our website is open and we are here to answer your emails and phone calls.
We are receiving many orders for bare-root roses, and some popular varieties are already sold out. So, place your order soon, if you haven't done yet, to avoid disappointment.
Our autumn sale for potted roses was very successful, but we had to end it earlier because of the huge delays Australia Post was experiencing in the last few weeks. While bare-root roses can easily stay for weeks in their box without any problem, potted roses have a shorter tolerance and we thought it was safer to pause our potted rose sale online for the moment. Potted roses are still available of course, but only if collected from the gate of our nursery, and they'll be back online in Springtime.
So, thank you for supporting our business and for your patience in this period. We can't wait to prepare and post your bare root orders - starting from July - and make you happy with new and beautiful roses growing in your garden.
