 Our United States growing facility is located in Watsonville, California. Our state of the art large galvanized steel frame houses are covered with polycarbonate sheathing. This material selectively filters the light spectrum, allowing more "healthy" light to reach the roses while blocking what is not beneficial. In addition to the polycarbonate covering, we use high-pressure sodium lamps because relying on Mother Nature alone to provide enough light is a big gamble, especially in the dark winter months of December, January and February. |
 Having the ability to control the amount of light the rose crop receives dramatically improves production and quality. We are known for our consistent quality, and have established ourselves as one of the industry leaders in modern technology implementation. One recent technological advance we have implemented in our growing process is the use of hydroponics. |
 Hydroponic growing provides a more controlled growing environment where there is less chance of disease than the alternative of growing in soil. The result is more consistent quality and environment for the plant to grow in, producing a larger bud, and a healthier looking flower. This process has established us as one of the flower industry leaders in modern technology implementation. We are able to cut our roses twice a day, 365 days of the year, ensuring that we have a constant supply of the freshest possible product. At point of cutting, it is only 24 more hours until they are at the recipient's door. |
 When you purchase your roses direct from the grower, you are getting roses that will open beautifully and last longer. Our bouquets are carefully hand selected to fulfill all incoming orders received for that day. This "just in time" inventory system, ensures that all orders are prepared with only the freshest flowers. |
 All flowers are wrapped in decorative cellophane and carefully hand packed on ice in an attractive, fully insulated gift box. A personalized card, floral preservative packets and flower care information are also included. |
| Our courier then loads the packages on their truck and they are off to the central sorting station. From the sorting station they are sent by plane to recipients throughout all of North America. Until recently, only large volume purchasers, such as wholesale companies, have enjoyed the benefits of ordering direct from the grower. Now, Rachel's Red Roses customers can enjoy the freshest flowers available direct from the grower at reduced prices! |
