Five new roses from Alexandra Farms

Alexandra Farms, the world’s largest grower of fresh cut garden roses, proudly announces the latest additions to their collection including one we had a sneak preview of last year!

The new varieties are truly special, with fantastic shapes, colours and versatility that will ensure these roses will be in demand by designers around the world.

Deluxe Garden Roses
Among the new releases are three varieties belonging their diverse Deluxe Garden Rose Collection. Quicksand, with its sophisticated and on-trend sand and cream colours, has a large, spiral-shaped bloom. Sahara Sensation is also new this year. She has a sandy, faintly golden colour, and petals that unfold in scalloped waves with hints of pink around the edges. Commonly grown as a spray rose, the variety is grown at our farm in Colombia as a regular-sized garden rose. Finally, there's Amnesia, with her extraordinary tones that shift from dusty lavender to pale grey green which made its commercial debut in late 2019. 

Princess Japanese Garden Roses
Our two new Princess varieties were developed by breeders in Japan. Princess Kaori (Fragrant) has an extraordinary blueish lavender colour, a large bloom and a sweet fragrance of lavender. Our first spray variety is called Princess Midori (Green). The Ed first saw it in Holland last year when just one precious bunch was debuted on the Alexandra Farms stand (you can see her video here) and we promise you have never seen a spray rose like it before! Each stem bears at least four or five small blooms in a unique, intense green shade. This variety lends a lively burst of energy to any arrangement. Both varieties are exclusively grown by Alexandra Farms.

Alexandra Farms is continually searching for garden rose varieties worthy of a welcome into their family of fragrant, romantic cut roses for weddings and everyday designs. No rose will be accepted that does not meet the minimum standard of a 10-day vase life after it has been nurtured, harvested, carefully packaged and shipped under the expert care of our rose-loving team in Bogotá, Colombia.
