Park Seed's 150th Anniversary Rose

150 Years in La Park, Pennsylvania, the Geo. W. Park Seed Company was founded by 15-year-old George W. Park who decided to sell seeds he had harvested from his backyard. The company would grow, thrive, and relocate many times throughout the next century providing top-quality seeds, plants, and gardening supplies to its customers.

Jackson & Perkins, sister company to Park Seed Company, is proud to introduce the La Park rose—a beautiful bloom to celebrate an amazing milestone. Both Jackson & Perkins and Park Seed are committed to offering the best for the garden, and have always maintained the highest standards in products and service.

The La Park floribunda rose is an upright, well-branched rose bush that boasts unmatched color in its beautiful blooms. These 4-inch blooms are apricot-peach, pink, and blush pink in color and no two blooms are alike. Growing up to 4 feet in height and 4 feet in width, this rose bush wills stand out in your landscape with its blooms and deep green, very glossy foliage.

With huge blooms for a floribunda rose, La Park will be an excellent choice for your mixed perennial beds or planted en masse in the garden. Its multicolored blooms erupt from the shrub in clusters of 5 to 9 and sit atop long, well-branched stems.

I was pleasantly surprised by this rose.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I received my 2 quart budded rose a couple of days ago. It's small but it arrived in good healthy condition with many leaves and with two small buds on it.(I might cut the buds to give the rose more strength to grow.) Because of the stress of shipment, change in environment and the crazy weather here lately I'm carefully and slowly getting it adjusted to it's new home. I looks like it will be an excellent addition to my garden. Thank you, Jackson and Perkins!

Less than I expected.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I purchased and planted this last year. While the blooms are lovely they are smaller than the 4 inches stated in the catalog and the bush overall is smaller. It is planted in full sun with a greenwell water saver around it but hasn't done as well as Veterans Honor and Moondance located in the same area. I hope it will improve in its second year.

I'm impressed with this rose! I received a healthy own root plant two month ago. We had a hot dry spell followed by a week of non stop rain with high humidity. This rose stayed healthy while a lot of my Kordes roses got BS which is unusual. I can't figure out how to post a picture but it's just like the picture on J&P website. Love it!

The most beautiful rose

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

The plant arrived healthy. My daughter chose the spot to plant it as instructed with some natural compost, organic garden soil, and soil amendments. It started to bloom 2 months later. It's the most beautiful rose I had ever seen. My friends all praised its stunning beauty. Now it's blooming the 2nd time this summer. Lovely!

Jackson & Perkins World's Finest Roses

The Jackson & Perkins Difference

Jackson & Perkins is one of the most recognized names in the gardening industry. In fact, for decades rose lovers have considered Jackson & Perkins synonymous with great roses. How has Jackson & Perkins earned this reputation? Simple, for over 100 years we have brought our customers the world's finest selection of roses.

Jackson & Perkins became a leader in the world of roses by producing dozens of award-winning roses. Jackson & Perkins has won more All-America Rose Selection awards than any other US company. In addition to the AARS awards, Jackson & Perkins has won numerous other awards, including the coveted Golden Rose of The Hague and the Royal National Rose Society’s President’s International trophy, among others.

From seed to market a new garden rose can take 8 to 10 years to develop. Every year, thousands of seedlings are grown but only a handful are selected to move into the trial phase. During this time, potential new roses are grown and evaluated in different climatic regions of the country. Our rosarians are looking for rose bushes that have stronger disease resistance, vigorous growth habits, and clean healthy foliage. When it comes to blooms, they are looking for improved flower form, unique colors, and strong fragrance.

Today Jackson & Perkins offers over 200 varieties of roses that includes a broad selection of exclusive roses, historical favorites, and innovative genetics from hybridizers around the world. We have two seasons each year for roses. In the spring, we offer bare root rose bushes, bare root 36” trees, 24” patio trees, and container grown roses. Our fall season is all bush roses, and they are available in 2QT and 1GL containers.

Whether you are new to roses or are an experienced rosarian, our online store has rose varieties for you. Our website is packed with information. You will find each rose fully described and lots of articles and videos that will help answer all your questions. Our call center staff have decades of experience and are just a phone call away.

Jackson & Perkins is here to help you in every way on your rose-growing journey.  There is no other plant in the garden that comes in more colors, fragrances, shapes, or forms, or performs as many functions than roses do.


Choosing Your Roses

Bare root roses are the most common form of roses for spring and early season planting, and come in two types: grafted and own root.

Grafted Bare root Roses
Own root Bare root Roses

Grafted roses, sometimes referred to as budded bare root roses, have roots that belong to a different variety of rose than the shoots. While the shoots will grow into the variety of rose you've selected, the root variety has been specially grown and developed for hardiness, improved resistance to common diseases, and improved resistance to certain weather conditions. The roots on any grafted rose you receive are usually already two years old, so they'll establish in your garden more quickly when planted.

Own root roses are grown from rose shoot cuttings and develop their own root system. Unlike grafted roses, both their roots and shoots come from the same variety of plant.


All Jackson & Perkins bare root roses are maintained in a suspended state of growth in our state-of-the-art wet cooler, so they'll be delivered to you with no foliage or blooms. The wet cooler has a uniform storage temperature set just above freezing and uses a fog system to provide consistent humidity of 100%, ensuring the roses remain fully hydrated and don't exit dormancy before leaving our facility. While you might see some variance in size, even within the same variety of bare root rose, all our roses meet the same rigorous standards of quality.

So, not sure which type of bare root rose you should choose? Don't worry, we've got that covered. We've researched which varieties of bare root roses grow better as grafted or own root, and both types can be planted in the early spring months, so just choose the variety of rose you're most interested in and get planting.

Though you might be surprised or intimidated when you receive a box of bare root roses filled with roots and shoots, rest assured, with the proper care, these little bundles will grow into stunning roses.


Container Roses

Container Roses

Container roses are typically available in 2-quart sizes or larger and come with established foliage that may or may not have blooms. While bare root roses should generally be planted in early spring, container roses allow you quite a bit more flexibility in planting time, from spring all the way through fall in many zones. Fall can be a good season to plant container roses because it allows them enough time to establish themselves before cold or freezing temperatures arrive.
