After 12 incredible years, Menagerie Farm & Flower is entering a new season.

What began as a dream to grow and share beautiful roses became a community rooted in beauty, gardening, and connection. To everyone who planted one of our roses, attended a workshop, visited the nursery, or simply followed along here—thank you.

I’ve made the decision to wind down our retail shop so I can focus on growing flowers at scale for the wholesale market and spend more time writing, teaching, and consulting through The Menagerie Academy.

As we close this chapter, I hope you’ll find a few final treasures for your home and garden. The entire store is now on sale, and our final day of retail sales will be July 17.

Standard return policies remain in effect through June 17. Please visit our Help Center for important dates and policy details.

This isn’t goodbye but it’s simply a new season, and I can’t wait to share what’s growing next.

With gratitude - Felicia

Hey there! 👋🏻 It’s Felicia the head farmer around here. Many new folks joining me this week so I thought it would be a good time to show my face around here & say hi.

💃🏼 This is my 26th year year farming. Where did the time go? My farming friends affectionally call me “seasoned” now.

🌱 My farm is nestled at the base of the Sutter Buttes in the Sacramento Valley of California. I specialize in growing cut garden roses, assorted specialty cut flowers, French prunes, nuts and rice on over 100 acres of beautiful California farmland.

🪴I also have a small nursery specializing in garden roses both bare root in the winter & potted year round.

📚 I have degrees Crop Science & Agricultural Business and I’m finding the older I get the more I love sharing my knowledge and teaching others about farming & gardening.

💧My favorite farm tool is my soil tensiometer. I know a crazy ton of usually useless information about prunes but I’m always a hit at parties with my prune trivia.

📖 I wrote a book, Growing Wonder, about how to grow beautiful cut garden roses. It’s approachable for all levels of rose lovers from beginner to professional flower farmer.

🇺🇸 I am the Chair of the Board for a non-profit organization that champions domestic cut flower production. It’s a cause I am passionate about because I believe in preserving the viability of all American flower farms.

👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 I live on my farm with my husband, who is not a farmer but a guy from the Southern California suburbs who and two boys ages 11 & 8 years. I count their years by the number of harvest seasons and when I look back at photos in this post I see how much they’ve grown just like the farm.

🏖️When I’m not busy farming I love to golf and sit in a lounge chair preferably on a beach in Hawaii.

I’m so glad you’re here! So tell me a little about you! Leave a message in the comments.⬇️

I can’t thank you all enough for your support of the launch of my Bare Root Collection this week. It means the absolute world to me and my great team of people.❤️

🌹If you missed the launch day, we got you! We have beautiful roses available for you to shop now.

💛Pictured here are ‘Crown Princess Margareta’, ‘State of Grace’, ‘Distant Drums’, ‘Koko Loco’, ‘Queen of Elegance’, ‘The Alinwick’ and ‘Moonstone’.

Thanks for loving roses as much as I do.

Surprise🎉! The 2026 Menagerie Bare Root Rose Collection is now available. It always amazes me that these mangily looking roots produce beautiful garden roses in a few short months!

🌹We were a little sneaky and did a soft launch this year to our mailing list this morning. See I told ya it pays to be on our list!

📧We’ve been getting lots of messages about the collection so I thought I’d answer a few of the most common ones today.

🇺🇸We ship our bare root roses to every state in the continental US. (Yes, even Alaska & Hawaii!) We do not offer international shipping on our rose plants. You can select your preferred shipping week you’d like to receive them at checkout so they arrive at the perfect time for you to plant. You don’t have to have them ship immediately. We ship our plants January-mid April.

🚙If you are local you can pick-up your order. We are offering pick-up by appointment only Wednesdays-Saturdays at our farm nursery.

🌹All of our collection is listed on the website in the ‘Bare Root Rose’ shopping page. If a variety is listed we will have it. If a variety is not listed, it is not in the collection this year. You can also use the search bar on our website to type a variety name you are looking for. Our nursery specializes in fragrant roses that are great for cutting so if you want to have beautiful bouquets to display and share you can’t go wrong with any of the beauties we have this year.

🌱I am a licensed California nursery and all of my bare roots are from my own farm or from my other amazing partner growers. Each plant is inspected by my county agricultural inspector and I can promise you free of pests and diseases. Kim, my gal at county ag, does not play when it comes to clean plant material and she’s also a rose fan.

A dry and oh so foggy and cold December at the farm.

The rain finally arrives today and it’s going to dump 6 inches between now and Christmas.

I’m not gonna lie, I am ready to say goodbye to this fog but I will miss the mystical vision it created in our rose fields.
