arrived in perfect condition even though the box had some damage, the plant was fine and all the soil was in place. I planted it according to the instructions and it is doing very well, I am very pleased, it will set off my garden with its deep red blossoms and do a nice contrast to the Arborose Tangerine that I got at the same time.

I received four roses, including Blaze, the end of May, all in great condition even if a tad pitiful, bare naked and all. The Blaze has been blooming for about a month, and has climbed about 4 feet up its trellis. Stunning color! I’m very happy with all four plants.

The plant was shipped in a very sturdy box.
BUT, only on the top end did it state "Top". Did not on any other place state "Live Plant" or any arrows on the sides to indicate which was up.
As a result the box got tumbled around & the soil in the container was thrown out.
Plant arrived with roots exposed. Don't know how long it was.
I've ordered from 2 other Rose companies & both of thier boxes had arrows and stating live plants.
In total this was the 6th rose bush I have ordered with only the Heirloom Rose having this problem.
Let shipper know what they are handling, seems to get good results.
As far as the rose, I've only had it 5 weeks. It has survived it's shipping, has bloomed with 2 very deep red blooms but only on 2 separate branches not showing signs of being a Floribunda type rose as stated in description.
It is definitely a climbing Rose.
It is a cute small bush.
Only time will tell.

Purchased these delightful roses 4 weeks ago! Followed the planting instructions carefully. Amended the soil as directed. And, Voilà!!! They took off like crazy! I’m astounded and very happy! I can’t wait until next year! :heart:️

I believe we have the non-Improved version. There is an 'Improved Blaze.' We've had this one since the early 1980s or so, and didn't get it from Heirloom Roses. It's once-blooming, with a bright show of single red flowers. For us, it's a short climber, but it's survived many challenging conditions and come through. I'm trying to judge it for itself, not by what one would expect from another sort of rose.
