Can you give me some ideas of where the best online
sources of minis are. I am looking for vendors who
ship out nice healthy substantial plants....not little
spindly things. Thanks !!! |

| I ordered from Nor'East and John's Miniatures. While the plants I received from Nor'East were definitly much larger in size, my mini's from John's are working hard to catch up. I've had John's in their pots roughly 6 weeks now, except one and that one I received and potted about a week and a half to two weeks ago. All are doing very well. In fact, the last one I received Incognito, already has a bud on it! So although I was surprised at the size of the plants, I would order from John's again. Additionally, I ordered Seattle Scentsation from Nor'East and while I love the color and the scent (which I can only smell up close), it blooms/opens way too fast. Glowing Amber has been a fabulous slow opener so I've been able to enjoy the color more. On the plus side to Seattle, it's my most prolific bloomer so far. I also have Snow Ruby (while pretty, mine is definitly different than the pic), Chasing Rainbows (working on opening right now), Cinderella Kordana from a grocery store, and Ring of Fire. |

Thanks Priszm for that in depth report on your vendors
you have ordered from and your experiences with minis
from them. I may just have to do like you and order
from both!!! |

| In addition to Nor'East and Johns, Bridges Roses, Almost Heaven Roses and Rosemania.com also send out large healthy plants. |

| The Uncommon Rose and Sequoia Nursery also both carry a selection of minis, along with their other roses. Chamblees has a limited list. Chamblees is a great nursery, great shipping rates, too. But I haven't ordered any of their minis. |

Canada. they are just down the street from my house. i dont know if they are shipping this late in the season, but these guys are serious about roses. the owner, Brad Jalbert, is also a hybridizer. he's got many of his creations for sale.ferrari vs. yugo |

Sorry my last post on Popcorn I said I purchaed it at Moores - actually it's Sequoia Nursery. I visit in person as my daughter lives in Exeter. We were just there for ten days and her garden club had a meeting at Sequoia Nursery.
I learned how to propigate - what fun. |
