Frequently asked questions

Every rose we sell is covered by our 1-year Rose Guarantee, so you can plant Frilly Cuff with confidence. See our Rose Guarantee page for the full details.
Often, yes — we grow our roses ourselves and stock varies through the season, so a variety that's sold out can come back. Use the "Notify me" button above to be emailed the moment Frilly Cuff is back in stock.
Frilly Cuff's mature growth range is 120cm x 120cm (4ft x 4ft). Growing conditions such as soil, sunlight, feeding and pruning can affect the final size, so treat this as a guide rather than an exact figure.
