FRANCIS ROSES &
APRIL & ASHLEY

Francis Roses began with a vision to spread joy and happiness through flowers. Founded by Michael C. Francis in 1987 in Arizona, the company has grown from humble beginnings to become the premier provider of luxury roses across the United States and Canada. Despite its expansion, Francis Roses remains family-owned and operated, dedicated to its craft and customers.

This same commitment has driven the company to grow through partnerships with renowned family-owned rose breeders and with Milagro Farms, a family-owned farm in Colombia. These partnerships, built on shared passion and expertise, have allowed Francis Roses to develop and source exclusive custom rose varieties known for their unmatched quality and character.

Now, the company is embarking on a new journey to redefine the flower-buying experience by delivering blooms directly from its farms to customers’ front doors. April & Ashley represents a seamless blend of the exceptional craftsmanship and fresh-from-the-farm rose bushes that Francis Roses is known for, combined with the luxury of direct delivery.

At April & Ashley, every rose bush and fresh-cut bouquet is meticulously curated, featuring only the finest, most fragrant, and freshest roses. Each seasonal floral arrangement is nurtured with the utmost care, serving as a living tribute to the Francis family’s passion, dedication, and craft.
