This rose has proven to be one of the most disease resistance to date of roses grown in our gardens. Add to that its attractive cherry red blossoms and dark-green foliage and you have, well, a knock out! It blooms continously all summer with its clusters of semi-double blossoms. It has compact growth up to 3-feet tall and wide. This rose is hardy to the crown in our northern Zone 4, where it benefits from a light covering over the crown in the winter in very cold climates.

What you'll receive: Grade #1 own-root plants, shipped bareroot (no soil or pot) and dormant (no foliage). Learn more about our plants.

Shipping: 1-4 plants=$11.00; add $1.50 for each additional plant over 4 plants. Shipped UPS Ground in spring from early April through mid May.

[Catalog #SR39 - Introduced in 1999 - A Bill Radler rose]

How to Grow

Roses need sun (at least 6 hours daily); well-drained, fertile soil; and consistent and adequate soil moisture to thrive and produce the most blossoms.

What's a "bareroot" plant?

Photo of bareroot plant"Bareroot" is a term that describes how a plant is shipped to you. A bareroot plant is not in a pot, and is usually dormant (not actively growing). See the photo to the right that shows what a bareroot rose looks like. The bareroot plants that we ship to you were harvested in the fall and placed in cold storage over the winter to keep them dormant. In the spring, we ship the bareroot plants to our customers, from early April through mid May.

Bareroot plants are easy to grow. We include planting instructions with your order. When you receive your plant, take it out of the packing material and place it in a bucket of water so that the roots are completely covered. Let the roots soak for 4 to 24 hours, then plant it in your garden. Full planting instructions with photos are available on our Planting Roses page.
