Russian River Rose Company

I am thrilled that I finally remembered to make the visit to Russian River Rose during the prime months of April and May. After a wine club spring party at Twomey winery, I decided to stop by for a visit. How fortunate that it was a quiet day at the rose farm, as I know that it can be bombarded with visitors in May. Hubby and I casually walked through the beautiful laid out garden of various plantings, along with climbing roses, gorgeous specimens of blooming Iris, and many other varieties of flowers. The entire setting reminded me of a setting in the South of France, complete with old world charm residence. The owners are now completely off the grid with solar power. We arrived just in time for a short talk about climbing roses and how to select them and I must say I learned a ton more of info based on that 15 minute talk than in any garden book I have ever read! Then we went over to the barn where the owner was distilling rose water. Very interesting and informative. I took lots of photos of the types of roses that I learned about and want to go back and purchase for my own garden. I highly recommend a visit to RR Rose if you are in the area.

Love this place so much my ultimate dream to have a garden of my own one day the lady there I'm guessing the owner is very nice and sweet owners are very friendly

This is a local gem. The grounds are beautiful, and there is a bit of a fairytale path below arches of antique roses. They have a great variety, and are very knowledgeable of antique roses, and even carry some retired Austens.
I've been here a handful of times and look forward to coming back.

I stumbled upon this place on while looking up rose gardens on Yelp. This isn't a public garden like the one in Berkeley or Oakland but a private home with a big rose garden open to the public on the weekends of April-May and the rest of the year by reservation.

I was very wowed by the garden, over 650 varieties of roses as well as all sorts of other flowers and plants. I went the weekend they had a rosewater making demonstration which was interesting. It takes tons of petals for just a small bottle of rose water! They also make and sell rose perfume.

This is a nice place to come up for an hour or so, especially if combining it with a winery or Healdsburg day trip.

Family owned and operated. Homey garden. In addition to roses there are other flowering plants for sale that make good garden companions.

Owners are genuine naturalists. Quintessential Sonoma county hippies.

Garden only open in April and May.

Come for visit to oooh & ahhh and to buy plants to beautify your garden.

This review is a little late, but after a hefty lunch in town, my parents wanted to find a place to stroll around. My mom looooves roses so this was a perfect spot.

They had tons of varieties and a large garden you could walk through and take in the scents and vivid colors of the different roses and flowers. They make their own rose water here too that you can buy and take home.

What a lovely place.
Thanks so very much to employee Nicholas who was incredibly helpful showing me roses I might like, explaining how to care for them etc.
They said their inventory was lessened since Mother's day but they still had a lot to choose from.
I will need to remember to come back next April.
Lovely roses, reasonable prices - highly recommended.

Reserve. Yelp says nothing about making reservations. Took my wife for her birthday and now she is mad that we couldn't go. Drove almost 2 hours and found out we had to make reservations. Called and no response. So frustrating!

Absolutely beautiful. I visited in October and had a personalized tour while I picked up my roses. My host (I wish I could remember his name!) was so helpful and genuinely passionate about his job, it was impossible not to feel the same enthusiasm. Jan has been ABSOLUTELY lovely helping me ship rose oils and rose water for Christmas gifts. This is just a magical place, I hope I can visit again just to support their amazing business.

Wow what a wonderful informative pruning and propagation class. A real hands on day. And such a beautiful setting.
They have a series of upcoming events this spring so I will be back.
See you there.
