Witherspoon Rose Culture 4800 Garrett Road, Durham, NC 27707

"I called to get help with my roses. I had used Witherspoons two years prior to prune and fertilize my roses and was told by Dwayne that the roses were damaged by herbicides. I tried for two years and was able successful in nursing them back to health, so I called again to ask for advice, and again spoke to Dwayne. He remember the roses and said the damage from a herbicide should have resolved by now. Dwayne thought it might be Rose Rosette and he would need to see them. He did tell me the consultation would be $150 and I agreed to that. He came out to the house, looked at the roses, and said there was not enough foliage for him to be able to diagnose rosette. He told me to send him a picture in the spring of new growth and he would be able to diagnose the problem. Why did I have to pay $150 for something he could’ve looked at a picture of? He knew there would be no new growth at this time of year. I have called the company to discuss getting a refund on the $150 to no avail. I have asked to speak to David Pike, President, and been told he will never take my call. I can only communicate with him by email. I am so disappointed with Witherspoon, who have been my go to Rose experts for years. I will no longer be working with a company who takes advantage of their customers and has clearly lost their expertise is roses. M. Jones"

"Whoever drives a Silverado with their name and website on it is very uncourteous to others. He was driving well below the speed limit in the left lane going west on I40. Traffic was already bad enough, but he was adamant to not letting others around him."

"I picked up 4 bridal sunblaze rose bushes today, and a nice young lady loaded them in my car. Excellent customer service and healthy plants!"

"This place is beautiful just to walk around and smells charming. They offer a great selection of roses at very attractive prices along with rose care products and rose services."

"We finally traveled over to Durham to pick up a rose bush that was given to us as a Christmas gift. After walking around and enjoying the grounds, we purchased a second rose bush. The folks who helped us were very knowledgeable and friendly. The little shop is well-stocked with items that help beautify and protect your garden! The fragrance in the air is amazing as there are simply hundreds and hundreds of roses on-site. For years we have admired their display at the NC State Fair and we are glad that we finally took home some of their wonderful rose bushes!"
