Notes

'Take It Easy' rose (Rosa 'Take It Easy') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and loamy or clay soil. The red blooms have light pink reverses and a light fragrance. It blooms again through the season, and bees visit the flowers. Christian Bedard bred it in 2014.

Pairs well with Duchesse de Nemours peony, Polish Spirit clematis, and Autumn Frost hosta.
