Bare-root roses are lifted only after they enter dormancy and the shoots have fully matured and hardened. Lifting them too early can stress the plants and leave young growth insufficiently mature.
We do not force the season simply to ship earlier. We wait for the right point in the plant’s natural cycle, so you receive a strong, well-matured rose ready for planting and the season ahead.
What about colder regions and winter frost?
Waiting until the shoots have fully matured helps the plants enter winter better prepared for low temperatures.
Famous Roses provides a 180-day establishment guarantee for bare-root roses.

Full description:
Emily Brontë is one of those roses whose beauty reveals itself gradually through detail. Its perfectly formed blooms open in delicate pale pink shades, while the smaller petals near the centre deepen into warm apricot tones surrounding soft golden stamens. The overall effect feels refined, luminous and quietly romantic.
Named in honour of the Brontë Society to commemorate the bicentenary of the novelist’s birth, this rose carries something of the atmosphere often associated with Emily Brontë’s world: elegance, sensitivity and emotional depth without unnecessary excess.
The fragrance adds another layer of distinction. Strong and beautifully balanced, it combines notes reminiscent of rose petal tea with fresh touches of lemon and grapefruit. It is the kind of scent that feels sophisticated rather than heavy, rewarding those who pause to experience it closely.
With vigorous upright growth, healthy foliage and repeat flowering throughout the season, Emily Brontë becomes more than simply a beautiful rose. It creates a garden atmosphere that feels composed, reflective and timeless — a variety we would choose for spaces where elegance should feel natural rather than decorative.

The plant was packed very carefully and handled transportation exceptionally well. Not a single leaf had come off during shipping, and the plant arrived healthy and vigorous. The rose has already started to develop flower buds.
