This rose with long, flexible canes and rounded green leaves produces masses of flat, quartered purplish-maroon roses from late spring well into summer. As with most Bourbons, 'Great Western' may surprise you with some later flowers at scattered intervals. Well scented and luscious in arrangements; be sure to bring these blooms indoors to enjoy.

We ship our roses from September to May. Other items ship year round.
At checkout, you may choose your desired delivery timeframe. This is a very important step!
We do ask that you make sure the weather in your zone is suitable for receiving and plating your roses.
Antique Rose Emporium is in Texas and the December weather can be anywhere from below freezing to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. But our weather is extremely mild compared to the northern United States.
We want you to have the best success possible with your roses and ask that you let us care for them over the winter and receive them at the time that you plan to plant.
Please ensure that you are not experiencing freezing temperatures and the ground is not frozen when you plan to receive your rose.
