Suntory Texas Summer Double

Oso Happy Candy Oh! is a sweet landscape rose with loads of perpetual blooms. Large sprays of single, candy apple red flowers bloom from summer until frost. Oso Happy Candy Oh! is a polyantha hybrid with a dense, mounding habit. It is great for mass plantings. Space the bushes 4-5 feet apart to make a dense border of red and green. It blazes in containers, too.

It is not a finicky rose. All you need to do is a quick shape-up in spring and then add some controlled release fertilizer. This rose does not need deadheading, summer pruning, or winter protection. It�s also disease resistant, so no need to spray it. And since it was bred by David Zlesak up in Minnesota, you know it's cold hardy. Plant it in USDA Zones 4-9.
