Roses CAN grow in the desert!

Enjoy the beauty of roses in your own garden while learning which ones do best, and how to care for them the 'right' way in a hot, dry climate

Yes! I want roses in my garden

Have you ever thought you couldn't grow roses in the desert'?

I'm here to tell you that it isn't only possible, but that roses can flourish in our climate.

And, you know what else? Our hot, dry climate offers some advantages to roses.

So, if you want to try growing roses or know how to care for the ones you already have, I'm here to help!

Are your roses struggling?

  • While roses can be grown successfully in the desert climate, they do have particular needs to be successful.
  • If you've grown roses in a different climate, there are some things you need to do differently in the desert.
  • Some varieties of roses do well in the dry heat while some prefer cooler regions.
  • Location and providing the right amount of water are two key elements in enjoying a beautiful rose bush.

Pleasure to meet you!
