EYECONIC™ SHRUB ROSE

The Conard-Pyle Co/Star Roses introduced another new breeding breakthrough in the world of roses.  After many years of attempting to cross modern roses with Hulthemias, (a species-type roses originating in ancient Persia), rose breeder Jim Sproul finally succeeded.  The Hulthemias are a once-blooming species with a characteristic red blotch.  The Eyeconics™ capture the blotch, but everything else about these roses is modern, from their rebloom to their pleasing small, shrub-like habit to their disease resistance.  The bushy 3 to 4-1/2 foot plants are filled with dark green, very glossy foliage that sets off the 2 to 3 inch, ruffled, non-fragrant blooms.

Roses are easy plants to grow contrary to popular belief. Why do you think Roses have been around for millions of years?  All they need are food, water and sunlight.  Just like you and me.
