040. In the Rose Garden with Founder of Heirloom Roses, Ben Hanna

Bailey is joined by Ben Hanna, the Founder of Heirloom Roses to talk all about rose care and the rose industry. Heirloom roses is a 35-acre nursery that carries over 4,000 varieties of roses, 900 of which are own-root roses. Ben gives his advice on how to care for roses, his favorite varieties, how to know if you have rose mosaic virus, why own-root varieties are so excellent and more. Ben also shares with us about how he came to buy the rose farm, and what it takes to run - the process of taking a cutting to market, and the licensing and logistics.
