Our story
IIn 1938, Ollie and Verona Weeks planted their first roses in Southern California, believing that a rose makes anyone's world more beautiful. For nearly fifty years, they poured everything they had, growing Weeks Roses into one of the most respected names in American horticulture. When NeuHouse Farms took on the stewardship of Weeks, they didn't take it lightly. As a fifth-generation California farming family, they'd been living alongside the legacy for years, directly across the street from the Weeks fields in Wasco. What drew them to Weeks was the recognition of something they already understood: the best things are grown with intention, from the ground up.
Today, those two legacies carry forward together. Weeks is the only rose house in the country that handles every stage of a rose's journey (from the first cross to the finished plant), evaluating each cultivar for more than a decade to ensure exceptional beauty, fragrance, disease resistance, and garden performance. We ship more than a million bareroot roses each winter to independent garden centers and nurseries across the country because we believe roses are grown in a system of relationships. We grow within the relationship of our land, with the partners who carry our roses forward, and with the gardeners who bring our roses home. Today, we honor the roots laid before us by helping more people find their way back outside, to the soil and to the joy of tending something beautiful.
Our mission
To craft roses worth tending and bring more people into the joy of growing.
Our vision
To see roses become part of the American garden again; grown, loved, and passed from one generation to the next.
Our values
-
From the thickness of a cane at harvest to the integrity of a cultivar in the garden, quality is the measurable standard that guides every decision we make.
-
We serve independent garden centers and wholesale growers because they represent a chain of trust. Every relationship matters; from our fields, to the nursery bench, to the hands of the gardener. text goes here

We have been doing this since 1938 because we love the work. We help our customers grow their businesses the same way we help gardeners grow their gardens.
-
The garden is more than a place to plant and harvest. It is a place of peace, patience, memory, and connection. Everything we do is in service of that space and the people who tend it.
