Oso Easy® Lemon Zest® Shrub Rose

Are brilliant yellow Roses your absolute favorite? We totally get it...they become like a visual pep talk, don't they? Do you also have the requirement that your Rose is an easy-care plant? Then you'll know why we are so thrilled to grow exceptional Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Oso Easy® Lemon Zest Shrub Rose (Rosa x 'Chewhocan'). It has proven itself again and again in field tests!

The brilliant lemon-yellow flowers hold their color all season without fading. They'll look perfect in a vase with plenty of glossy green foliage placed as an effective contrast. Lemon Zest® Shrub Rose smells heavenly and reblooms in successive flowering flushes over many months. Don't be shy about taking blooms for indoor arrangements during the season. They'll make long-lasting blooms in the vase, and are a lovely hostess gift.

They'll grow into a symmetrical mound that is absolutely covered in pretty yellow buds and blooms! Fragrant Lemon Zest® is very free-flowering, covering itself in blooms all summer and into the fall every year without fail. Highly scented Oso Easy® Roses were bred to be beautifully rugged and trustworthy. Whether you are a beginning gardener or have many years of experience, these happy blooms will make your garden shine all season long.

No wonder Lemon Zest® is the winner of an Award of Excellence from the American Rose Society. It has proven itself with constant bright color and excellent disease resistance, so you know that this Landscaping Shrub Rose is going to be a fantastic performer in your own garden. The sunshine-colored blooms are even self-cleaning...so you never have to prune or deadhead! No need to worry about Rose diseases like Black Spot or powdery mildew.

Planting and Application:

Weave Lemon Zest® throughout Butterfly or Cut Flower Gardens, and include them near Victory Gardens. There aren't many plants that produce so many nectar-rich blooms over the long growing season! Get a picture-perfect yard with the help of these vibrant Roses. Place them 18 inches apart for a showy flowering hedge that charms everyone who passes by.

Call them the modern version of the white picket fence. At once classic and contemporary, Lemon Zest® Roses can fill a wide, open area with bold color and sweet scent. You'll turn a bland corner into a spectacular garden feature! Simply place them in saturated sunlight and mass them to add eye-catching professional polish.

This upright Rose can be effectively grown in the ground or in containers. Perhaps you need to spice up the look of your foundation or patio plantings. What better choice, either in the ground or growing as "Thrillers" in sleek outdoor containers?

This juicy free-flowering shrub really shines on the south side of mature evergreen trees! Run a drift of Lemon Zest® in a new mulched bed. Keep the lines straight, or create a flowing, organically inspired free-form planting bed. There is something about bold yellow offset by crisp evergreens - it’s like a match made in Heaven!

Yellow mixes so well with other hues from scarlet to pink. It's an exceptional contrast for purple and blue-toned blooms and is a knockout companion with white flowering perennials and shrubs.

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Plant Oso Easy® Lemon Zest® Landscaping Rose in a place with plenty of full sun and air circulation. They need at least six hours of direct light a day for strong stems and the best flower power. Provide a moderate amount of water on a regular basis. Maximize the performance with Nature Hills Root Booster during planting, then mulch to a depth of 3-4 inches, pulling it back away from the stems. Container-grown plants need well-drained soil and a careful schedule of water. Try drip irrigation systems to make things very easy on yourself. Rake and bag all fallen foliage in late fall.

Prune in early spring down to eight inches, and fertilize at that time per the directions. Want more info about pruning Roses, about winterizing Roses, and un-wintering Roses in spring? Check out Nature Hills #ProPlantTips Garden Blog!
