Carefree Delight
Carefree Delight blooms profusely with upright, arching canes and a free branching habit that spreads up to 5 feet. Graceful canes enveloped with dense, dark green foliage show off clusters of up to 10 buds, which open to expose carmine pink petals laced with a creamy white center.
Highly resistant to mildew, blackspot and rust, this landscape shrub rose is truly carefree and delightful. House of Meilland hybridized Carefree Delight from a combination of Eye Paint and Nirvana together with Intersmat. The Conard-Pyle Company is the introducer.
