Notes
'Oso Easy Fragrant Spreader' rose (Rosa 'Oso Easy Fragrant Spreader') is a shrub for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. The fragrant mauve blooms attract butterflies and bees. It stays about 24 inches tall and spreads wide, so give it room. Christopher Hugh Warner bred it in 2002.
Pairs well with Spiked speedwell, Royal Standard hosta, and Little Hottie panicle hydrangea.
