Self-cleaning and very disease resistant, Rosa Oso Easy® Honey Bun is a lush mounding shrub rose boasting a profusion of blush-pink to butter yellow to creamy white semi-double flowers. The blossoms stand out against the healthy, glossy dark green foliage. Blooming continuously from midsummer to frost, the showy flowers entice passing butterflies to use them as perfect landing pads. Floriferous, easy to grow, low maintenance, and cold-hardy, this shrub rose brings cheerful color to the garden or landscape. Perfect for mixed borders and beds or as a flowering ground cover.

  • Grows up to 24-36 in. tall and wide (60-90 cm).
  • Best grown in full sun in fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil. For best flowering apply a balanced fertilizer and mulch in late winter or early spring and a balanced fertilizer again in early summer. Salt tolerant.
  • An excellent choice for beds and borders, city gardens, coastal gardens, cottage gardens, or as a colorful groundcover.
  • Keep an eye out for aphids, rose leafhopper, scale insects, caterpillars, large rose sawfly, rose leaf-rolling sawfly, black spot, rose rust, and rose powdery mildew.
  • Pruning is generally not needed, but this shrub may be shaped in spring. It does not need spraying.
  • Propagate by hardwood cuttings in autumn or by chip budding in summer.
