    Dear Valued Customer,

    Heralding the arrival of spring, we are proud to unveil the new 2013 Weeks Roses Wholesale Catalog.

    For the third year, there are two catalogs in this mailingour classic wholesale rose catalog and the third season of Weeks Edibles & Ornamentals, which continues to expand with new and exciting selections.

    The 2013 rose catalog is an entirely new design. The front cover announces Love Song, one our most prolific and long-blooming floribundas. The beautiful lavender, old-fashioned blooms will make you want to sing its praises.

    Our back cover showcases Sparkle & Shine. This attention-grabbing floribunda is a non-stop, disease resistance blooming machine. Large clusters of big, bright yellow blooms contrast with the glossy foliage and bright red new growth. You can see all of our new exciting introductions for 2013 on pages 4-5.

    We are excited about the many changes we have made in our production and fulfillment this year. RFID accuracy was great improved this year, resulting in tighter inventory control, shipping efficiency, order accuracy, and reporting information on customer orders. We are confident you will see the difference as you receive your orders this year!

    The 2012 selling season was another year of big changes in the rose business. With the rose industry continuing to shrink, we expect the supply of rose plants to remain tight nationwide. So were encouraging all of you to place your orders early to get exactly the roses you need.

    We appreciate your business, whether youre a first-time or long-term customer. Weeks knows that our success is only measured by your success in selling through our fine products. We promise to be the Tops in our efforts to provide great quality, broad selection, and efficient personable service.

    On behalf of everyone here at Weeks Roses, Id like to wish you a successful selling season.

    Sincerely,

    Charlie AndersonPresident

Pointed buds of deep rust unfurl to reveal a chocolate haze of velvety smoked tones that can even take on a purply cast.

Yet its perfectly blendable with any color in the garden, whether its atop a rose tree, planted in mass or nestled amongst your favorite perennials. The super-clean glossy-green foliage mirrors the owers, adding even more pizazz to this bushy rounded ower factory. Comments: Smokier when its cool outside.

    All you have to do is just stick it in the ground, give it a little water, kick back and watch it grow. The foliage is so glossy green and free from black spot that the bush looks great even without owers. But you wont have much of an opportunity to see just leaves cause it blooms up a storm. Scrumptious owers of showy apricot orange will light up your landscape. Comments: Very consistent in all climates. Great in the landscape or in mass plantings.

But one color gene has inexplicably dropped out (a sport) to give even brighter green foliage and a delectable peachy golden yellow color that holds to the very end. Scrumptious!

    All you have to do is just stick it in the ground, give it a little water, kick back and watch it grow.

Scrumptious owers of showy apricot orange will light up your landscape. Comments: Very consistent in all climates. Great in the landscape or in mass plantings.
