What a wonderful rose! I'm always wary when sending a gift that I haven't seen, but I had no need to worry. The very pleased recipient sent me a photo and she was buzzing with how fabulous it was. Such a healthy plant, full of buds, beautifully packaged and with excellent instructions. She commented on how professional the whole experience was. She is absolutely delighted with her 'Mum in a Million' Rose, in memory of her lovely Mum. Thank you so much.
Purchased this rise for my Nan and grandads 60th wedding anniversary. It arrived promptly and in a very secure box which was also easy to wrap in gift paper. They loved it, and it’s now thriving in their garden.
We recieved this beautiful Golden wedding rose in a willow basket off my sister and her husband for our annivesry
The rose is very healthy and the natural willow basket gives it a rustic, elegant look. It arrived securely packaged and completely ready to display. It is a wonderfully thoughtful gift that we will cherish for years to come.
This is a beautiful rose which I bought for the 1st anniversary of my husband's death. I looks lovely on the patio and has a wonderful perfume. I am sure I shall have many years of great memories.
I bought this rose for my sister’s birthday in memory of our beautiful Mum. She was delighted and said it arrived in excellent condition with buds. She said she wasn’t surprised as the packaging was amazing.
This was beautifully packaged and presented for my Mother in Laws 80th birthday. We could see the care and quality of the rose, it looks so healthy. The extra's of the Linen bag and 80 wooden heart made it more gift like and added an extra touch.
I will definitely buy roses from English Rose again. Brilliant !
A very healthy looking plant which was delivered safely and quickly. Packaged well to protect in transit. Looking forward to gifting this to some very special friends.
Bought as a birthday present it fitted a number of requirements. A beautiful potted rose in a willow basket for a shady garden that could be moved around for some sun. A simple fragrance and subtle colour. The birthday girl was very pleased.
Delivery was exactly as I'd been told it would be, packaging was perfect to keep the rose in tip top condition. Just have to wait patiently for the beautiful rose to bloom now.....cant wait.
Rose tree looks fresh and healthy delivered on Mother’s Day from my daughter would have given 5 stars but as there’s no buds or flowers will have to wait until summer
Received this rose as a gift from a good friend. It’s in memory of our beautiful daughter who passed away with cancer lately 😢. Looking forward to seeing it bloom and brighten our days just as she did
The whole ordering process was flawless. Simple to order. Super quick delivery. Packaging was amazing - very cleverly designed to protect during transportation. Good price. Would highly recommend and will happily purchase from here again. Thank you English Roses.
The rose is beautiful and the person who it was for is enjoying it. I believe it was delivered in the time that it was supposed to be delivered
Plus the driver who delivered the rose was very nice.
Healthy, established plant with glossy leaves (no blooms but that was expected in Sept) and well-packaged for delivery.
It was bought as a gift and recipient was very happy!
Roses arrived in perfect condition and looking splendid in a willow basket. Rose food was included, which is perfect, together with clear instructions on caring for the plant. Such a lovely surprise and a perfect gift.
A beautiful plant with dark green leaves arrived on time and was planted in a willow basket as requested. The happy couple celebrating their 60th Wedding Anniversary were absolutely delighted. Thank you!
I received this rose in celebration of our golden wedding, from our daughter and it’s absolutely beautiful. The picture is spot on and it’s such a healthy plant. I thoroughly recommend English Roses.
I was very excited to receive the rose bush as it was a gift for a special friend. it was perfectly wrapped and in perfect condition, the best thing was a few flowers were about to open, it was the perfect gift for a perfect friend, I will be using English Roses again, thank you all so much
I ordered this as a gift for my parents' 40th Ruby Wedding Anniversary. This was a smooth service from start to finish - easy to order on the website and add some nice touches to make it more of a personal gift, clear communications on order processing through to it being sent and the delivery process, no problem with the delivery service used either - I received regular updates on when the item would be delivered! My parents are chuffed with it and said it arrived well packages and looked very good quality. I will definitely turn to this company again :)
I have just received my rose today as a gift from my son and was so impressed with the way this was packaged.Every care has been taken to ensure this arrived in perfect condition and it has. I am looking forward to many years of memories of my own mother when it blooms and of all the days spent shopping for roses with her while she was still with me. Her eyes were always drawn to a yellow rose.
