Ole is a new northern-grown rose developed by the University
of Minnesota's hardy-rose breeding program. Being born in
Minnesota, it had to have a Minnesota name, like Ole! This
rose has blush-pink to white blossoms about 2-inches wide
each that appear in clusters of 5 to 15 blossoms. It repeats
well all summer, so there's always color on this rose. It
has upright growth to about 2-feet tall and wide. Looks great
by itself, in mixed perennial or shrub borders, or planted
in groups of 3 or more. Easy to grow with healthy foliage
that has good resistance to powdery mildew and blackspot.
It is winter hardy to the snowline or crown in northern Zone
4.

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. |
