Amity Rose & Garden Nursery /Amity Heritage Roses is a husband/wife mail order nursery located in Hydesville, California (North-North Coast), just minutes from the tallest trees in the world. We propagate, grow and sell quality band-sized antique, modern, species, Weeks, J&P, and David Austin English rose varieties grown on their own roots, as well as some
other garden plants. We ship our own root plants in pots of soil-less planting media - not bareroot, and have been certified by the state of California to ship to all US states and protectorates, and some other countries (click for list). Our own root plants in pots usually ship February through August, as weather and specific variety inclinations permit. See our Availability List for more information.
We are celebrating our 12th year in the nursery business and have compiled a list of ways you can save by being part of our continued success! As our reputation grows as well as our plants grow, it's all the two of us can do to take orders, grow fantastic plants and ship them safely out the door.

Our Reputation and
Plants...Comments from our Customers Our goal when we began
was to raise the bar in band-sized rose plants, and to be able to
maintain consistency in our high quality plants, service and customer
satisfaction. From there our customers say it all, as well as
their submitted photos of our babies growing up. Thank you -
you're great! Here's a sample: I can’t remember sending
you guys an email to tell you what a happy customer I am, this may be
your second but I’m so happy I can’t help it. I purchased a Blue Moon
for my mom, my first on-line plant purchase, about 2 months ago. I AM
SO VERY PLEASED!!!!! The Blue Moon arrived in a couple of days – pretty
impressive for a cross-country trek. The roses were in perfect
condition – even packed in a nice container that can be reused &
looks good – nothing like the cheap ones you get from the local
nurseries. The rose had so much new growth when it arrived and has
grown to almost twice its original size since she’s had it (about 2
months). I have never had the pleasure of buying a plant that was
obviously loved & well taken care of, I cannot believe how healthy
it was when it got to us. It also had a beautiful card with the
requested note attached. I want to thank you so very much for giving me
the opportunity to give my best friend/mom the best gift possible. I
will be purchasing from you again and again, and again, and again. You
are wonderful & you have one extremely HAPPY customer! Your
Friend in FL, A.C.

Unusual/Rare
Crimson Bouquet KORbeteilich PP12001 Grandiflora, dark red, fragrant, very disease resistant, Bad Fussing® x Ingrid Bergman, AARS 2000, Kordes 1999, 4 x 3 ft Z7
"Darlow's Enigma" (date unknown) Single, very fragrant white flowers. Shade tolerant climber up to 12'. Z4/5
Grandmother's Hat (Cornet, Barbara Worl) (Hybrid Perpetual/Bourbon, reintroduced 1991) Medium pink, quite fragrant,regularly in bloom, 6 x 4 ft. When Barbara Worl, who found the rose in a California cemetery, says she saw it in the world's largest rose garden in Germany labeled Cornet, we were convinced, but now the American Rose Society has decided that the longstanding study name of 'Grandmother's Hat' should prevail until its true identity is known. Whatever the name, it's one of the best HPs or Bourbons available today. Z5/6.
Heuchera 'Midnight Rose' (ppaf)
One of the newest and hottest Heucheras this year. Of course if we're going to sell a Heuchera it's going to have "rose" in it somewhere and we're sure glad we chose this one! Compact, darkest leaves are spotted hot pink in the spring, then fade to cream and pink dots in summer. Mostly sun to part shade, perfect under a rose bush, but we've even grown it as a conversation houseplant in a sunny window! Small bell flowers shoot out in summer. They are selling great at the farmers' markets so we have arranged to have a lot more! 1 x 1 ft Z4
Outta the Blue™ (WEKstephitsu - Carruth 2002 PP 13,449) Shrub, magenta changing to lavender. Darker in cooler climates. Very fragrant of a unique floral, fruity-spice, as well as disease resistant. Lighter centers. When they start blooming we can't keep the plants on the Farmer's Market table! 4+ x 4 ft ***
Scentimental™ (WEKplapep - Carruth 1997 PP#10126) The first striped rose to win an All-American Rose Award. Dark red swirled with white, and the pattern is different on the bottom of the petal! Very fragrant (better be, with a name like that!) of rose and spice. Good disease resistance. Vigorous 4 x 4 ft, Z6
Sun Flare Butter yellow clusters of fragrant flowers on a compact plant with excellent disease resistance, way back from 1981 (Warriner). AARS 1983, Portland GM 1985. Even people who don't "do" roses have asked us about this one because it is so healthy. Must have gotten its good fragrance from mom 'Sunsprite'.
2+ x 2 ft, Z6
Tamora (AUStamora 1983) Another highly fragrant (if you like myrrh) Austin rose, but with controlled size. Beautiful apricot and pink blend medium-sized flowers on a stout bush of 3 x 3 ft. A neighbor near our first home had a young plant thriving in a medium-sized pot.
Tournament of Roses Named for the New Year's Day parade and football game held each year in Pasadena, CA, since 1886! This strong growing pink blend is certainly worthy of a celebration. Not really fragrant, but known to be disease resistant and a winner on the show tables for its excellent form. 5 x 3 Z6/7 **
