The roses I got from GVR aren't bad roses, but I wasn't comfy in giving them a recommendation based upon the 2011 ordering session: how their website was broken for so long, how you had to contact them to verify everything, etc, plus the 3 roses I tried to order on their website weren't available when I ended up having to call & confirm! The 2010 was also a SNAFU as I had put in my order, then they lost my order, so had to reorder everything again. I am extremely disappointed in Edmund's Roses, so didn't want to write a recommendation for them. I should write a recommendation for Burling, though.. she's got awesome roses with decent prices, just a bit harder to order.
