Rose Petals Nursery is our little specialty rose nursery in a great rural North Central Florida setting! Down a scenic road, we have many varieties of antique and old garden roses. Across the five acres we have a display garden, where every rose is labeled with its name and year of introduction, providing you a larger snapshot of what our one gallon potted roses will look like in the future.

Each of our own-root roses are available for pickup at the nursery or you may have your selection shipped to you. We are open the first Saturday of each month for retail sales. We welcome you to call for a special visit on other days.

We have Large Potted Plants (LPP) roses for pickup only at the nursery. Check the website for those selections.

In addition, we can help you select a "living antique" as a unique gift for all occasions including birthdays, anniversaries and graduations! Please ask us about shipping your "gift".

Gift Certificates are available.

Both Art and Cydney Wade, owners of Rose Petals Nursery invite you to stop by and smell the roses.

Testimonials.

All of my flowers I have bought from you are doing soooo beautifully! The Mrs. B.R. Cant has bloomed several times, and the Zephirines are growing like crazy! I am SO hooked on antique roses. I had a dream I was walking through your roses the other night, and it spurred me to order more.... :) Hope you are all doing well! "

Madame Joseph Schwartz arrived on my doorstep this afternoon and is in excellent shape, aside from being a little dehydrated. Thanks for wrapping everything up well- UPS respected your "Fragile" markings on the outside of the box- how about that!

I can hardly wait to make up a new spot in my flower bed for this rose! So excited!

Thanks for all your help,
