Alexandra Farms grows something rare: Princess Garden Roses, imported from carefully tended Japanese stock, now flourishing on a high‑altitude rose farm in Colombia. In Bogotá’s fertile savanna, warm Andean days and cool nights give these roses shape, structure, and fragrance. Picked and sorted by hand, they come from passionate growers who know each rose by name. Have you already checked out their fairytale-like princess collection?

Not Your Standard Garden Roses - A Look at the Princess Line From Alexandra Farms

The Princess collection from Alexandra Farms features a selection of Japanese garden roses developed through years of careful breeding. Each variety is grown at high altitude in Colombia with a focus on precision and consistency. These are not large-scale production roses. Quantities are limited, quality is prioritized, and every stem is selected by hand.

The collection is shaped by Japanese breeding traditions, where symmetry, petal form, and color stability matter. These roses have distinct personalities, but they share a common approach: clean lines, well-formed petals, and finishes that hold up in professional settings, plus, they are very princess-like, making them favorites among floral designers.

No two varieties play the same role in floral design. Some work well in groups, others are best used as focal points. All arrive with structure and purpose, making them a solid option for floral designers who prefer reliable results and low variability in their materials.

Meet the Princesses

Each of these Princess roses was kept because it performs with precision, opens the way it should, and gives designers something they can rely on. Get a glimpse of them and their characteristics below!

Rose Princess Aiko® (Beloved)

A medium-sized peach rose edged with hints of cream and coral. Petals overlap in tight concentric layers, forming a nearly spherical rose that opens predictably to about 80%. Garden rose Princess Aiko® has deep green foliage that frames the center, offering contrast and balance.

Rose Princess Fairy Kiss Pink Spr

Spray garden rose Princess Fairy Kiss Pink is a blush pink spray rose with multiple wavy petals per stem that open long and steadily. Each head carries a frilly, luminous appearance, larger than most sprays but still delicate. It’s suited to arrangements that balance soft fullness with controlled presence.

Rose Princess Miyuki® (First Snow)

Rose Princess Miyuki® has large, high‑centered white petals with a myrrh‑licorice fragrance—rich, warm, and spicy. Each stem usually carries side shoots and opens without flattening. It’s rare to find this level of structure paired with scent in a pure white rose.

Rose Princess Pinku Spr (Pink)

A small spray rose in vivid hot pink at the center, fading to soft pink with pale green on the edges. Each stem in spray rose Princess Pinku provides multiple compact blooms—a “color bomb” that’s handy as a body flower or cluster accent. Expressive and visual without overwhelming.
