The Ultimate Rose was developed in the world’s ultimate place for growing roses,
South America. Grown in the enriched, volcanic soil of the Ecuadorian countryside,
The Ultimate Rose begins its life journey at an elevation of more than 9,500 feet.
As young plants, the giant roses thrive in the region’s long days of extended
sunlight and cool nights. They are grown in special environments using special
nutrients to achieve their size.
Only the farm’s most robust roses are tagged and left to grow taller and larger
than the others. The roses are specially bred and grown to have very large heads
(6.5 cm or greater) and very straight stems. They exhibit ‘super-size’ characteristics
including:
Very thick stems, approximately 1 cm in diameter at the base,
“Russian-cut” featuring 65 or more petals,
large flower heads that are 3 to 4 inches across.

Once harvested, the roses go through a special hydration process to prepare them
for shipment to the United States. The shipment is packed with dry ice to ensure
that the final delivered blooms are as beautiful as they can be. It only takes
approximately three days from the time the roses are harvested until they reach
our warehouse in Florida.
Orders are shipped overnight express from The Ultimate Rose Headquarters and distribution center
in Melbourne, Florida. Each order is carefully arranged in one of the signature The
Ultimate Rose black boxes and personalized with the sender’s message on an elegant
folding card.
