Through trailblazing partnerships, Jackson & Perkins brings gardeners a new and international collection of roses.

At Jackson & Perkins, we've been sharing roses with gardeners for more than 150 years. Over that time, we've learned something every gardener knows in their bones: roses aremore than plants, they're stories. They carry the memory of a place, the intention of a breeder, and the joy of every gardener who takes a moment to stop and breathe them in. Today, we're thrilled to share a collection that brings that kind of story into your garden in a way that's genuinely uncommon.

Introducing the Roses Around the World Collection — an international rose collection drawn from our Library of Roses and offered exclusively for gardeners in the U.S. Through trailblazing partnerships with international breeders, we’re bringing together a suite of roses that are rare, resilient, and remarkably beautiful. These exclusive roses are hard to find and that’s part of what makes this offering so special.

What Makes This International Rose Collection Different?

We often hear from gardeners that they want roses with real performance: blooms that hold up season after season, plants that don’t mind the realities of summer heat or spring chill, and flowers that keep giving without demanding constant fuss. But gardeners also want extraordinary beauty, something that stops you mid‑walk through the garden and makes you smile.

That balance of resilience and visual impact is the hallmark of this international rose collection.

Each rose in the Roses Around the World Collection was selected with two things in mind:

  • Proven garden success — tested by experts for strong growth, health, and reliable bloom performance
  • Distinctive charm — roses with character, color, form, fragrance, and a global heritage that makes them unique

These rare roses come from internationally renowned breeders — rosarians who have spent lifetimes perfecting roses in climates and conditions around the world. For the first time in the U.S., we’re honored to share these remarkable varieties with American gardeners.

A Garden That Feels Shared Around the Globe

When you plant from the Roses Around the World Collection, you're doing something subtle and meaningful: you're connecting your garden to a global community of growers and growers' legacies. Think of it as a conversation across continents, told in rose petals and color.

One of my favorite moments from last spring was watching a neighbor's face light up over a rose called Hummingbird. She'd never grown roses before and yet within weeks, that plant became the centerpiece of her patio garden. Later, when I mentioned that Hummingbird has its beginnings in New Zealand, she laughed at how worldly her tiny garden suddenly felt.

That's the spirit behind this collection: a little adventure, a little discovery, some storytelling, and a lot of joy.

What You Can Expect from These Exclusive Roses

Every rose in this collection has been chosen for its international appeal, exclusivity, and elegance. Many are offered in the U.S. for the very first time; others may only be found in limited quantity because of their rarity. All share a standard we know matters to gardeners:

  • Exceptional bloom quality: rich color, compelling form, and fragrance that enhances the garden experience
  • Healthy growth habits: strong foliage, good disease resistance, and vigorous development in a range of landscapes
  • Story and pedigree: roses with roots in rose‑rich traditions from around the world

Find the finest blooms, available in limited quantity, for a truly exclusive experience.

How We're Growing the Collection

We don't believe in static offerings because gardens change, gardeners change, and the world of roses evolves right along with them. That’s why each year we supplement this collection with exciting new additions from other countries and breeders. Our Library of Roses continues to grow, and with it, the opportunity to bring fresh, rare, and compelling roses into American gardens.

You'll always find the current offerings in the Jackson & Perkins Library of Roses, alongside helpful care guides, video tips, and garden inspiration so you feel supported from the moment your roses arrive to their first blooms and beyond.

Limited Quantities for a Truly Exclusive Experience

Because these roses are selected from exclusive sources and limited breeding programs, many are only available in small quantities. If you're drawn to the idea of a rose garden that tells a story, one of global inspiration, expert care, and thoughtful selection, this collection is designed for you.

Whether you're an experienced rosarian or just starting your rose journey, the Roses Around the World Collection offers something that feels both special and exclusive — a breed of roses that invites curiosity, admiration, and plenty of garden pleasure.
