Editor's Comment:   February 2007. The Garden Watchdog editors are sad to mark this company's entry as closed, and we extend our best wishes to Joey and Angie for success in their new endeavours!

Company Comment, posted on September 4, 2005:   It's with sad regret that Joey and I are announcing the closing of our small little rose business. We have both moved on to other things in our lives that require a lot of our time and attention. We are just not able to continue and do not want to continue if we cannot give you our best effort. We will be selling our remaining inventory this spring on Ebay. You can find us there. We thank all of our customers and appreciate having been one of the Watchdog Top 30 companies last year. May your roses bloom in Abundance! Much love from Angie and Joey

Arrived about 20 inches tall with most soil, healthy leaves, and a bud on top about to bloom! I am very happy with Justjoeys!

I ordered a Pink Poodle miniature rose and it had a perfect blooming rose on it when I opened the box!

They came on July 8, maybe shipped a tad slower than usual due to July 4th holiday, understandable. I did receive notification that roses wouldn't ship until after July 4th. They arrived with moist potting medium, nicely packed, fully leafed. We planted them yesterday. I would buy from them again, earlier next time to get a different climber. Positive carolrees (23 reviews) On June 23, 2006, carolrees Arlington, VA (Zone 7a) wrote: On 6/11/06 I ordered 5 miniature roses in a variety of colors and received 7 of them today in good condition with lots of follage with the dirt still moist. One of the roses was blooming. Since I ordered at the end of the season when many companies will no longer ship roses apparently 3 of the roses I selected were out of stock. The owner wrote a nice message stating that she had tried to contact me by email about making substitutions and hadn't gotten a response (my fault) and had taken the liberty of making substitutions for the 3 that were out of stock. She also gave me 2 extra roses and stated that if I was dissatisfied with the substitutions that she would refund my money. I'm very pleased with my experience and would order from them again. On August 11th, 2006, carolrees added the following: Most of them have now bloomed and look stunning. Positive Idahoan (17 reviews) On May 27, 2006, Idahoan Boise, ID (Zone 6a) wrote: How I wish there was a rating better than "Positive"! I ordered Hot Cocoa over 3 months ago. Living in Idaho makes it necessary for a seller to hold items until warm weather arrives. Angie had no problem holding the rose. "Hot Cocoa" arrived this week with 2 buds. The foliage was a healthy looking green and there were no broken stems. I am already looking for more roses to order. Even my husband commented on how nice this rose looked. We'll be back! Positive cindasue (1 review) On May 25, 2006, cindasue Los Angeles, CA wrote: Oh, I love these roses!! They arrive quickly, they are healthy, they bloom in the most beautiful colors and have truly become my favorites. So I have-- and I will continue-- to order more of Joey's roses. A rose IS really a rose if it's from Joey's!! Positive QuietVoice (2 reviews) On May 3, 2006, QuietVoice Highland County, OH (Zone 6b) wrote: I was wanting a Zephirine Drouhin climbing rose, and I found Just Joey's on GW with lots of positive comments, so I went ahead and gave them a look. On the website, I noted that they had numerous other interesting roses, so I ended up with a small order of a Zeph. D, Dragon's Fire mini, Joseph's Coat climber and Charisma. Angie emailed back at first to warn me that she didn't have any Charisma starts ready, but she would do her best to get one by the time my zone was ready to be shipped. Long story short, I have the Charisma. Wonderful customer service, even toward a such a small order! Prices are more than reasonable and she does indeed answer questions promptly. The roses arrived very healthy with new growth. I'm pleased and would not hesitate to order again.

Positive okiemudbug (2 reviews) On March 31, 2006, okiemudbug Durant, OK (Zone 7b) wrote: I just received my climbing Cecile Brunner from Just Joey's. She looks great as well. I've never experienced better customer service. Angie not only answers every e-mail, she never treats a dumb question like a dumb question. Next time though I will order from website instead of EBay for multiple discount and selection. Prices were lower at Chamblees but plants came in mid-winter actively growing. Angie waits until after frost with dormant plants which saves a lot of time and effort sheltering tender foliage. PS Still loved Chamblees but will be careful to specify shipping date in the future.

The plant arrived in great condition, ready to go out in the garden. The service was friendly and helpful; communication terrific. I will definitely be ordering from Just Joey's Roses again.

Positive KeithGCampbell (1 review) On February 19, 2006, KeithGCampbell Kihei, HI wrote: I'm new to growing roses but decided to start in a big way. I looked at several websites and then chose "JustJoey's" because of their rating. Before I even ordered I sent a query with general questions about the right roses for my area, whether or not they would grow here and asked for advice. Angie's response came within 3 hours and had more information than I could have hoped for. I then chose several roses and sent another query asking about which of those I'd chosen would grow well in my area and also which would grow the fastest. Not only did I get advice on planting and distance, but I received a list ranking the roses I'd chosen in the order of their rate of growth. I ordered 16 roses, 1 bush and 15 climbing roses, they arrived earlier than I expected and each was safe and sound. I can't say enough good about Angie and Nick and "Just Joey's Roses". It's the best gardening, internet and ordering experience I've had to date!

Positive lyahdan (1 review) On July 22, 2005, lyahdan Davis, CA wrote: I ordered a bit late in the season, but everything arrived healthy and ready to plant (the minis were blooming, they really wanted to get into the ground and go). Angie answered all of my questions quickly, was able to supply alternates to some of my first choice plants that were already sold out for the season, and basically made the order process painless.

Thanks . will do business again.. Highly recommend. Donald Wingate Pinnacle Sales Positive RosyRapture (14 reviews) On June 20, 2005, RosyRapture Saint Louis, MO wrote: Received a shipment of 16 roses from JustJoey's last week. I had had questions prior to placing the order, and Angie's immediate responses were much appreciated. I also felt the human touch--that I was dealing with a person that knew the roses intimately, rather than just through a computer screen or the pages of a catalog. The roses arrived well packed and in excellent condition--the 12 Climbing Pinkies were monstrously healthy, and looked like they had not even traveled! John Davis was equally robust, Charisma had a gorgeous bloom, and the last two, although smaller, had excellent root structures. All in all, a reassuring, professional experience, and an EXCELLENT value for mail order, especially considering Angie offers free shipping on orders over $100--something I've never encountered before in ANY other mail order rose nursery. Just Joey's does not have the largest selection of roses, but of the roses they DO offer, the majority are outstanding. I will definitely continue to order from this company in the future!

Positive iansudano (2 reviews) On April 29, 2005, iansudano Palm Springs, CA (Zone 11) wrote: I am so pleased with the transaction and will buy again. Angie communicated whenever I had a question, I ordered 6 roses and 8 were delivered. They were backed very well and I am preping them as the included instructions said. I cant wait to get them in the ground and enjoy them in my garden. I have a list on my desk of the next batch I am going to order. it is so cool to buy from an internet supplier who is ethical and business like. Previously I had an experience with a BIG named floral group and the order was never correct or corrected, so I was trepadacious about ordering on line, and Angie proved me wrong to think that, I will buy from often and always and forget the horrible experience that the conglomerates dish out. Angie you are the best thanks Positive torisebastian (8 reviews) On April 21, 2005, torisebastian Syracuse, NY (Zone 5a) wrote: Ordered Joseph's coat climbers. Quickly received healthy, well gorwn little plants that I can't wait to put out in my garden. Have ordered again (winter magic mini) because service and plants were so great. Positive baccus7t (1 review) On April 21, 2005, baccus7t wrote: Very, very positive. Ordered roses last Fall and since I'm in zone 4 and fall planted roses don't do well here, the owner recommended growing the bare root roses in his green house over the winter. They arrived yesterday in teriffic shape. They were well packaged and very healthy. They even had buds and excellent instructions on watering and progressive exposure to sunlight because of their long shipment. Planting instructions were also included. This will not be my last order from this friendly business. Positive sassyfras (5 reviews) On April 17, 2005, sassyfras Dickson, TN wrote: Quick shipping. Beautiful specimen of New Dawn rose.

I love the way they bloomed none stop last summer. When fall came I didn't have the time to cover any of the roses for the winter. The temprature went down to 17 degrees with no snow as ground cover. I was surprised when I went out early spring to check them. The tips of the roses is all that died back. All of the other roses not purchased from Joey's had died back and some could be dead. Keep up the good work - I will be buying again. Thanks for growing hardy roses.

I was aware of the website, but was searching in Ebay when I came upon auctions there (from Just Joey's) Bid and won. Service was excellent as was all communication. One of the nicest buying experiences I have ever had. The plant is healthy with substantial new growth. It should do wonderful this season. It's already potted-up and awaiting some warmer summer weather. Highly recomend for the quality of service alone. Very Pleased and will purchase again I am sure!

I found Just Joey's Roses through this sight and gave them a shot!! The website is well done in a very charming style and I found lots of information on the products and lots of roses I wanted to try! Wouldn't you know it, when I got my roses, the box had been damaged in transit... (Looked like the box had been kicked! No kidding!) ANYWAY... All were okay except my Don Juan's who are broken all the way down to the roots! I was so upset! I immediately emailed Just Joey's and they were so kind, they are sending me 2 new Don Juan's roses out right away. I am very pleased with my experience and would definitely buy from this company again! Happy Gardening!! God Bless you!

All arrived in excellent condition and were very well packaged for safety. The proper inspection papers were also attached to the packages. The communication from Angie was fantastic. I knew exactly when my roses were sent so I knew when to expect their arrival. An instruction/care sheet was sent with detailed instructions. I can tell with my transactions that Just Joey's Roses truly cares about their roses and their customers. I have purchased from other companies, two of the well known plus others, and the roses I received were bigger and in better shape than the other companies own root roses. When I need more roses I will get them from Just Joey's Roses. I highly recommend this company, Their roses are better, bigger, healthier than the well known company.
