It takes from 45 to 57 days to produce a rose in a greenhouse, depending on variety, time of year and especially, light
conditions. Relying on Mother Nature alone to provide enough light is a big gamble, especially in the dark winter months of
December, January and February. One method utilized by some rose growers is the installation of "High Pressure
Sodium" lights in their greenhouses. Having the ability to control the amount of light the rose crop receives dramatically
improves production and quality. In addition to extra lighting, we provide our roses with additional carbon dioxide, increasing
growth rates. By increasing the growth rate, we are able to cut our roses twice a day, 365 days of the year, ensuring that we
have a constant supply of the freshest possible product. When you purchase your roses direct from the grower, you are getting
roses that will open beautifully and last longer.
