Romantic coral-pink blooms, distinctive licorice fragrance, and award-winning performance make Beautiful Dreamer unforgettable.
Jackson & Perkins Rose of the Year 2014, with elegant 5-inch blooms on strong 14- to 16-inch stems that hold their form beautifully in the garden and vase.
Beautiful Dreamer Hybrid Tea Rose pairs romantic coral-pink color with distinctive licorice fragrance and the elegant flower form gardeners expect from an exceptional Hybrid Tea. Large 5-inch blooms open slowly from peach-colored buds, revealing 35 to 40 beautifully arranged petals with a slightly lighter reverse. Strong 14- to 16-inch stems and flowers that hold their form remarkably well make Beautiful Dreamer especially rewarding for cutting, while repeat flowering brings its graceful beauty to the garden from late spring through mid fall.
Named Jackson & Perkins Rose of the Year in 2014, Beautiful Dreamer was selected for more than beautiful flowers. Its upright habit, dark green foliage, strong disease resistance, and particularly good resistance to powdery mildew provide the garden performance to match its exhibition-quality blooms. This is a rose for gardeners who want flowers that are every bit as impressive in a vase as they are on the plant.

Jackson & Perkins Rose of the Year 2014
Why This Rose Stands Out
Beautiful Dreamer earned Jackson & Perkins Rose of the Year recognition by bringing together the qualities we look for in an exceptional garden rose. Its large, elegantly formed flowers deliver the beauty expected from a classic Hybrid Tea, while strong stems, impressive flower longevity, distinctive fragrance, and reliable garden performance make those blooms even more rewarding.
Beautiful Dreamer is particularly compelling for gardeners who love bringing roses indoors. Peach-colored buds slowly unfurl into substantial coral-pink flowers on long, strong stems, and the open blooms retain their form and petals beautifully. In the landscape, its upright habit and dark green foliage provide an attractive framework for repeated flushes of flowers throughout the season.

Care Tips
Plant in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Water deeply while the rose becomes established and during dry periods. In spring, remove dead wood and old or crossing canes, then prune to encourage vigorous new growth and maintain an attractive upright shape. Remove spent flowers during the growing season to encourage continued bloom.

Immediately unpacked upon receipt, soaked for over 24 hours and potted up in the same media mix used for roses bought from another grower, and no growth. The canes just shriveled, dried up and turned brown. Really disappointed. Same thing happened with 4 of the other 6 roses I received in this order. Emailed customer service and never heard back.

The 36-inch tree is amazing, massive flowers, tons of blooms, and the flowers hold their shape for days / weeks.

The Beautiful Dreamer rose we received was very small, short (6 or 7 inches), thin stems, and 3 or 4 leaves on it. Just wondering if that was the only stock remaining. Thank you. Just checking.

This tree rose arrived very quickly and in great condition; I soaked the roots for 24 hours, clipped the roots and canes a bit and planted it in a raised bed and so far it looks great and has little buds on it. I can't wait for it to bloom.

This rose is a jaw dropper. It is so large and full and lasts when displayed in a floral arrangement. I like to share my cut roses with my neighbors and this is one they always ask if I have any more available. It is my absolute favorite. Highly recommend this gorgeous rose.
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 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 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.
