Rosaholics Best sellers, deals & our review

About Rosaholics

Rosaholics sells fresh-cut roses and a smaller range of sunflowers, alstroemerias and tropical flowers, shipped in boxes from the farm to your door. Their about page describes a family-run floral house with more than 20 years of growing roses for weddings, events and florists before it began selling direct to US customers. The store lists about 239 products, with most bouquets priced around $68 to $85 and a median of $74.

What the catalog looks like

Roses dominate: about 80 listings are "exotic" roses and about 78 are standard rose bouquets. The exotic group is where Rosaholics stands out from typical online florists. Bouquets like PANDORA WINTER (electric blue and purple, $74) and the Halloween lineup, including SPOOKY BREW at $80 and PHANTOM'S GLOW at $85, use colors you will not find in a supermarket. On the natural side, the store sells named garden rose varieties such as SPELL OF LOVE, built on David Austin's Tess variety, at $96, and the dusty mauve BLUSH OF THE MOON at $120. Alstroemeria bouquets in the Sempre line cost $68, and tropical arrangements like WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE run $72. There is also a wholesale option for 100 to 500 stems.

Tinted vs. natural color

Rosaholics is upfront about color. Its FAQ says many shades come from artisanal techniques including dyes, paints and stains, plus natural crossbreeding, and several listings note that the color is the result of an artisanal process. If you want only natural colors, the FAQ asks you to contact customer service for guidance. The roses also ship without water tubes or hydration sponges; the company says flowers ship right after harvest, and it recommends rehydrating them on arrival. Their FAQ also states the farm is Rainforest Alliance Certified.

Delivery and returns

According to their shipping policy, all orders take 3 to 4 business days (weekdays only), with Alaska and Hawaii sometimes needing 1 to 2 extra days. They do not ship to PO boxes, APO/FPO addresses, the US Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico. Delivery dates cannot be changed or canceled once an order is placed, and the FAQ suggests picking a date at least a day before your event in case of carrier or weather delays.

The return policy is unusual for flowers. You have up to 90 days to request a return, but products must be brand new and unopened in original packaging, and a 30% restocking fee applies. Sale items and gift cards cannot be returned. For damaged, defective or wrong items, contact hello@rosaholics.com right after delivery so they can evaluate the problem.
