  • This is a super handy reference guide for anyone confused by the number of "white" roses that exist in the world and I hope you enjoy a little color theory while we go through the characteristics of each one of these twelve gorgeous Neutral roses.
    I'm back for a brand new season of videos and since Valentine's Day is just one week away, I'm giving you guys a dozen neutral roses...for color reference. Watch as I geek out on discussing the nuances of white roses, distinguish the undertones of two of the most popular wedding roses-Quicksand and Sahara and introduce some lesser known but equally beautiful options. I have experience making floral arrangements with every single one of these and while I don't have a favorite, you can see which ones I've been working with recently and which ones I think are a little overused.
    If you've ever had roses wilt on you fresh from the store, check out this trick:

    My floral wholesalers-note you must have a business license/sales tax id for your state in order to register for wholesale flowers. If you do not have a business, I suggest getting to know the local floral department and your favorite grocery store-they have a lot of info on what flowers they can get and when they come it!

    This was SUCH a helpful video. You're so thorough and seeing them all compared in the same lighting was so much better than trying to guess what they all look like by googling photos. Your commentary on how they open, smell, ect. was really great. Would love to see more of this kinda video from you

    Wow, extremely helpful video, thank you so much! The best video on this topic. I thought I would go for Tibet or Quicksand type of rose, but this proved me that a garden rose O'Hara is the way to go for me!

    This is the only video like this that I could find. Super helpful. Are all of these sold only as cut flowers?

    • @Sullivan_Owen
      @Sullivan_Owen  3 года назад

      yes these are florist roses, there are similar ones available for home gardens but they do not hold up as well as these do. two very different needs, i have videos on some of the plants I have in my garden and I have lots of roses. Glad it was helpful

    Great video!! I LOVE roses and would like to grow some to sell to florists. Since I won't be able to compete price wise with international growers, I'm thinking of growing only David Austin roses to reach a niche market. Do you think that's a good idea? Thanks for your time!

    • @Sullivan_Owen
      @Sullivan_Owen  3 года назад

      Hi! I love them too. There is a rose grower called Grace Rose Farm that you may want to check out, they grow specialty roses for florists and ship bouquets which is probably closer to what you're thinking about rather than the big commercial farms. I think anyone wanting to grow high quality flowers to sell to their floral community is a great idea, I would also talk to the florists in your area and see what they look for. I wish you all the best with it, growing flowers is incredibly rewarding!

    We are wanting to put roses in floral tubes and push in the ground to line the aisle outside for a wedding. Any recommendations for which neutral rose you would recommend?

    • @Sullivan_Owen
      @Sullivan_Owen  Год назад

      I would actually suggest seeing what your supplier has available, from what I understand neutrals/white/cream have been very hard to get this year. Good luck!

    How do you stop the roses from browning? Do you have any tips please?

    • @Sullivan_Owen
      @Sullivan_Owen  3 года назад

      browning petals usually means the flower has been bruised on the face or from oils in fingers touching the petals. It's best not to buy ones that look like they've been manhandled at the store and to handle them by the sides always. When arranging with roses, always hold them at the widest part near the base and pull off guard/bruised petals after arranging. hope this helps!

    What do you do if the vendor sent you the wrong color and wrong rose? And your event is in 3 days.

    • @Sullivan_Owen
      @Sullivan_Owen  2 года назад

      I'm sorry to hear that, I can't say that has happened to me. My local wholesaler (DV) would pick up the wrong ones and drop off the correct ones or send an appropriate substitute. I typically get my bulk flowers Tues for a Saturday event so I have to time to sort out corrections. If you're using a fed ex supplier, they should do what they can to correct things for you. And my best advice is to never promise specific flowers to a client, I use color families, list out seasonally available flowers and also have a clause in my contract that nature doesn't always cooperate and I have to be able to make substitutions as needed. Best of luck to you!
