We ship our entire stock of roses, grown from cuttings on their own roots, year round in three pot sizes. Delayed shipping continues to be available year round upon request.

As you may know, Ashdown Roses, a nursery that has been a leader in collecting rare roses from around the world, went out of business last summer. In October Rogue Valley Roses hired a refrigerated truck to bring the Ashdown Roses across the country from South Carolina to our Southern Oregon hilltop.

Our Ashdown Collection includes roses from the Fineschi Garden in Italy, the Sangerhausen Garden in Germany, and many other rare varieties from throughout Europe, Asia, and Australia as well as some wonderful modern varieties.

The Ashdown roses that are currently in stock may be accessed by clicking on the Ashdown Collection link on the left margin of any page on our website. We will list many other varieties in this collection as we produce plants to sell. In some cases that process may take two years. If you were an Ashdown customer, we invite inquiries about any rose you were looking for that is missing from the online list. Kordes and Delbard roses are listed in separate collection links as well as in the main inventory. Bear with us as we continue to improve our upload of data and complete the individual pages for all our new rose varieties.

NOTE: Our Ashdown link have some programming problems: notably some pages that are scrambled or half empty or empty---just continue clicking past the empty pages.

New From Paul Barden for 2010

Janet Inada new from Paul Barden for 2010
With parents like 'Westerland' and 'Abraham Darby', how could such a rose as this not be spectacular?! 'Janet Inada' enjoys many traits of both of its parents; the vigor and health of 'Westerland', the full blooms and intense fragrance undoubtedly coming from 'Abraham Darby'. Intermediate between both, it is a large, somewhat horizontally spreading large shrub that could easily be trained as a climber. If you prefer not to train it onto a structure, it will happily grow as a freestanding bush to about 6 feet tall and a bit wider under most circumstances. 'Janet Inada' is quick to mature on its own roots and blooms in cycles, providing at least four main flushes of bloom in a season (depending on your climate, of course, there may be more). Although it has not been tested in all climates, we expect this rose to perform exceptionally well in all but the coldest zones (at least 5 through 10) with minimal protection from freezing.

'Janet Inada' blooms generously in flushes, with many lateral shoots carrying between one and five blooms to a stem, each up to 4.5 inches across. Fragrant? You bet! It has a rich citrus/rose scent that is long lasting and powerful, sure to please every nose. Spent blooms tend to drop cleanly, so that deadheading won't be necessary. When it comes to pruning and shaping, don't go at this rose too hard, because it will produce some of the best and most abundant bloom on its basal canes, sending up loads of productive lateral shoots. (Here is where training should be done as you would for a modern climber) In testing, disease resistance has been quite good, however, in an area that has intense Blackspot pressure, disease prevention may be needed.

Pam's Choice new from
Paul Barden for 2010
Photo and comments by Paul Barden
This 2010 introduction is a relatively small flowered Floribunda-style shrub with classically formed lavender blooms that have a soft tan center when half open and blush a rich plum color on the outer petals as they age. The color combination is inherited from both its parents, 'Suntan Beauty' and 'Lavender Pinocchio' and, is often quite remarkable and always pleasing.

The bloom color is superb as a cut flower if brought indoors as a fairly tight (1/3 open) bud. Blooms come in clusters of three or more, with occasional one-to-a-stem blooms. There is a mild fragrance at times, but as the blooms mature the scent dissipates quickly. Don't cut this plant back hard because it is very generous with lateral shoots on its older canes, giving a maximum of bloom when pruned lightly, as a shrub rose. Like many other roses, it will not be as copious with flowering later in the season if allowed to set seed (which it does readily) so be sure to deadhead it to get the most out of it. Fortunately 'Pam's Choice' has improved vigor over both of its parents and will quickly build up a respectable 4 X 4 foot shrub in good soil. Disease resistance has been very good in our experience, but resistance will vary depending on how much of a problem Blackspot is where you garden. Photo and text copyright Paul Barden 2010.

Siren’s Keep™
Siren’s Keep entices with an intense Old Rose fragrance, sometimes revealing hints of Myrrh. Among its many enchanting qualities is its deep magenta/mauve hue that can present as deep crimson or a blend of these colors, depending on the weather. Blooms are prolific, about 4", and appear in very frequent flushes. The opening bud is cupped; then reflexed when fully open. A bush in full bloom is literally covered with dozens of blooms with the intense fragrance detectable a few feet away. Foliage is a healthy dark green; disease resistance is good. Hardiness has been tested to Zone 6a. With a bit of winter protection Paul thinks Zone 5 may be possible. It forms an upright shrub to about 3 feet wide; height will vary with the climate, but 5’ seems a good average estimate. In warmer climates we think it may be grown as a 6’ pillar to good effect, perhaps even extending to climber height on an arch or fence. This garden siren is definitely a keeper!

Treasure Trail™*
I am an unabashed fan of Paul Barden's reblooming modern mosses. Having grown Treasure Trail for a year I find it to be one of the most unique roses in our 1500+ varieties collection and one that I, well, treasure. Paul has classed Treasure Trail as a pink blend, and this is a rose with extremely variable color. The oveall impression is of a peachy color, fading to warm pink with reddish tints. The outer petals tend to be a warm pink and the inner petals peach-orange, often with reds blended in. It blooms virtually continuously and prolifically without needing to be deadheaded. I am taken by the slight upcurling of the petal edges combined with the button eye. The effect is crisp, and, for me, recalls chrysanthemums. The foliage is dark green and glossy. The mossing is very heavily scented of Lemon/Balsam. Some Blackspot protection may be needed though we haven't seen this. Mildew is not a problem. Paul has it listed for Zone 6, but he thinks, with protection, it can be grown in colder climates. Its short, compact rounded shape, continuously covered with bloom, and requiring little deadheading or pruning, is perfect for a container.

Licorice Tea™*
Licorice Tea has Lilian Austin and Monsieur Tillier in its immediate breeding lineage. The charming soft yellow blooms have an intense fragrance of Licorice/Anise and Old Rose. The blooms come in clusters of three to seven, and, when the rose is newly planted, break at the branch tips. On the second blooming, laterals break at many of the leaf axils, increasing the display significantly on all later flushes. Licorice Tea makes an excellent specimen shrub or it can be trained on a support. It can also be grown in a large container if required. Arching growth is to 6x6 feet in the garden. There are few thorns. Foliage is dark green, semi-glossy. Disease resistance is good, but will vary according to climate stresses. Licorice Tea joins Won Fang Yon as another outstanding modern day addition to the class of Tea roses.

Rook™*
Rook is described by Paul as having "spectacular color of an intense deep crimson, approaching black-crimson. Rook is one of the darkest Gallicas I have ever seen." Blooms come in clusters of three to five. Bloom form is a flat rosette that is sometimes quartered, sometimes with a button eye. Petal count is a minimum of 50, maximum of 80. There is a moderate spicy scent. The rounded compact bush has dark green, matte foliage, will sucker modestly, and looks lovely planted in among lighter flowered Gallicas, such as Camaieux. Rook is hardy to at least Zone 5a and possibly much colder. Winter protection not required. Rook is an excellent addition to an OGR bed where a smaller specimen is needed.
