About Pococks RosesSituated in the heart of Hampshire’s beautiful Test Valley, you will be able to enjoy many gardening delights in this area should you decide to visit. Pococks Roses is a small nursery dedicated to growing nothing else but roses for the garden. These roses are sold direct from the nursery, or from flower shows or by mail order. (see How to Buy menu) In all, we produce from our fields in excess of 60,000 plants every year in a range of over 450 varieties. We have roses to suit most garden situations and soils and can usually find a rose that will come close to your particular requirements. Many roses have wonderful names to make them suitable as gifts for any number of special occasions, for example Warm Wishes, Silver Anniversary, Charlie’s Rose & Cloud Nine. Our staff are very knowledgeable and usually very helpful!! So don’t be afraid to ask their advice. November is probably our most hectic month of the year as we are extremely busy sending out orders and digging up roses - and working against limited daylight is simply frustrating! At the nursery, which is a working nursery, you will find us disguised under mud in the winter! Do come and join us as many others do, as we sell lots of roses from the nursery over winter - it is the best time to buy! By the spring it will have been transformed and be full with about 12-15,000 containerised roses ready for sale. Joking apart, the winter season is when the crop of roses in the field is dug up and cleared (see How to Buy menu) – this clearance is achieved by sending out orders for field grown (bare root) roses that we have taken through the summer from shows, from the nursery, catalogue or web site and collections by visitors to the nursery. The remainder of that crop is then potted (a fairly lengthy task!) to fill the nursery for sales from spring onwards. That is why the nursery can look very empty during the winter period!! We are in the process of re-designing our display area at the nursery with which we aim to show a good range of the varieties we grow, with particular emphasis on climbers and ramblers, to give customers as much help as possible in choosing appropriate varieties. It also shows how to train climbers and ramblers on various structures. From May through to August we are usually exhibiting weekly at flower shows. Many are RHS shows such as Hampton Court, others are independently run smaller shows and we attend several agricultural shows, normally in the south. Our field of roses from which your plants will come is open to the public from July to September and it is a good way of seeing the roses and how they perform before you buy. Do wear stout shoes and trousers if possible as it is simply a field with untamed roses growing!! Also, it is advisable to ring and confirm that the field is suitable for viewing on a particular day. Look forward to seeing you soon. Opening TimesMonday to Saturday: 9-5 About The Cornish Rose CompanyThe Cornish Rose Company is 5 years old and came into being because Pocock's Roses was sending more roses to Cornwall than any other county in the UK. This was a surprise as people were always saying ' you can't grow roses in Cornwall'! We presumed that either the roses were dying and being replaced or customers were successfully growing roses. After some market research, we decided that there was a need for a 'proper' rose nursery in Cornwall (one that grows from start to finish, not just buying in roses and potting them up). Following the purchase of some very weedy land and a lot of hard work, The Cornish Rose Company took root! Our aim in Cornwall is to grow good, healthy varieties that will withstand Cornwall's damp climate and give satisfaction in the garden with normal cultivation - i.e. Feeding and pruning but little or no spraying against fungal diseases. Opening TimesMonday - Saturday 10-4 Closed Sundays Our roses are also available from the following nurseries/plant centres: Trewithen Gardens Plant Centre (Probus). Penventon Garden Centre (Lanner, near Redruth). Goldenbanks Nurseries (Liskeard). Falmouth Garden Centre(Swanpool, Falmouth).
