High Voltage Easy Elegance® Rose

The High Voltage Rose is the most cold-hardy of all the new Easy Elegance® roses, that combine constant blooming and disease resistance with traditional tea-rose and shrub rose double blossoms. This rose has the exact high-center form of the classic tea roses, but with a continuous display of bright yellow, fragrant blooms all summer and into fall, coupled with an ease of care you will love. It is perfect for cutting or for growing in your flower beds, and its narrow upright form, and modest 4 to 5-foot height, makes it perfect for a smaller garden, or even for growing in containers. Hardy to zone 4, and in zone 3 with winter protection, this is the best yellow rose for cold regions.

• Superbly formed pure yellow fragrant roses all summer long
• Upright bush never stops blooming
• Very winter hardy in zone 4 and even zone 3
• Perfect, large, hybrid-tea type roses
• Disease resistant and very vigorous

For the very best results the High Voltage Rose should be grown in full sun, in rich, moist, well-drained soil. It is a good choice for heavier clay soils, that roses love, if they are enriched with plenty or organic material. Mulch annually with organic material, and feed regularly with blended rose food. Although the plant itself is drought resistant, periods of dryness in summer will reduce flowering, so water regularly and deeply. This variety is resistant to both blackspot and mildew, so spraying is normally not needed, and pests rarely become serious on such a vigorous plant.
