Red Lands Roses was established in 1996 in Ruiru, 35km Northeast of Nairobi, Kenya.The altitude of 2000m and the proximity to the Equator are ideal conditions for the cultivation of quality roses with long vase life.
We specialize in growing and exporting spray, garden, mini roses as well as T-hybrid roses of the highest quality in a range of around 180 varieties. Our roses are grown naturally on 28 hectares of non arable land in over 20 greenhouses on a 100% hydroponic system. It allows full recycling of water and prevents rejects of phosphates and nitrates from seeping into ground water which saves 50% of water consumption.
