Notes
'Oso Easy Italian Ice' rose (Rosa 'Oso Easy Italian Ice') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. The fragrant blooms open yellow and fade to pink, and they appear from late spring into autumn. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers. Christopher H. Warner bred it in 2012.
