Like its namesake, it flowers from early summer through frost on a versatile, low-growing plant. It also shares its outstanding hardiness and disease re- sistance. Landscape roses like the Oso Easy® series don't need any special kind of pruning: simply cut them back by about one-half their total height each early spring. This ensures that the new growth comes from the bigger, healthier buds lower on the plant. Oso Easy Double Red® This rose earns its spot in the Winner's Circle! There's so much to love about Oso Easy Double Red® rose - its lush, deep red color. The way the blooms are held on long stems, well above the foliage, for a truly memorable display. And speaking of foliage, its a beautiful, lustrous green with excellent resistance to powdery mildew and black spot, so it stays looking good all season. No need to deadhead to keep those beautiful blooms coming, too! Color: Red with pink and orange undertones Height/Habit: 3-4’, rounded Bloom: Free-flowering, self-cleaning Fragrance: None Part Number: 034516 PW2 $29.99

This self-cleaning rose has excel- lent disease-resistance, abundant flowers, and a nice habit, making it an excellent plant for home gardens.
