Extensive research from independent test sites across the country continue to give one of our Easy Elegance® roses an A+. It's Sunrise Sunset and we're not surprised. The delicate blossoms, blend fuchsia with apricot, and flower non-stop above unimaginably clean foliage. It has a dense, spreading habit, so desirable in a landscape rose. But don't take our word for it. Here are some comments we've heard from the test sites:
Chicago Botanical Gardens
Disease resistant, good health and habit, even flowering. Best performer. Continuous bloom with dark purple foliage and orange hips helps this plant rise above the rest late in the season.
Fort Collins Nursery - Colorado
Disease: None noted. I'd want one in my yard.
Jefferies Nursery - Canada
Bloom: Excellent. Over 50 flowers on one plant. Show stopper. Excellent rebloom.
Spring Grove Cemetery and Arboretum - Ohio
Great size, good color and great repeat bloom (best recurrent bloom). One of our favorites.
Northwest WI Tech
Good impact, great repeat bloom, great rose. Still blooming on Oct. 30th.
Market value: Very high - the #1 I have tested in 4 years!!!
Cornell University
You have a winner with this one. Excellent potential for landscape shrub rose!
