What a wonderful new rose! It has clusters of red blossoms
with wavy petals that have a pink tone, so they go with everything
in the garden. It’s just enough red to brighten things
up in the garden, but still blend well with other flowers.
It also never seems to be without its many clusters of flowers
all season. Mystic Fairy has dark-green and healthy foliage,
vigorous growth and a compact form that’s a bit wider
than tall. Its small size makes it easy to place in the front
of a border. Or use it as a low-hedge or in a container. We
just keep finding new places for this rose all over our gardens.
The canes on this rose are winter hardy to the snowline or
crown in northern Zone 4.
This new rose is part of the Easy Elegance series, and comes
with a 2-year guarantee from the plant breeder, Bailey Nurseries.
More info is available on the Easy
Elegance Web site.

What's a "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.
