A fine addition to white theme gardens, fragrance gardens, rose gardens, cottage gardens and container gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 3 to 3.5 feet apart for hedges; 7 feet apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences

The Easy Spirit White Rose is easy to grow in average, moist but well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. As with all other roses, to avoid powdery mildew, morning sun is a must to dry dew from the leaves. Afternoon shade or filtered sun is fine. We suggest 6 hours of direct sun light for best flowering.

Maintenance is minimal with no pruning required, though the plant can benefit from it. An annual pruning in late winter, at which time branches can be cut back to about 18 inches above the ground, will result in a fuller plant throughout the growing season. After this hard pruning, your rose will quickly flush out and start blooming with the arrival of warmer spring temperatures. Deadheading spent flowers through the season is not necessary however will encourage more new buds and flowers.

Ordered this easy spirit rose from Wilson Brothers. The price was great and free shipping.
Plant arrived quickly and in good condition soon after the order. The plant was packaged perfectly and arrived in good condition. Order was easy and people great to deal with. Planted the plant quickly in late June. Here in Dallas Tx temps are 80s and 90’s. The plant is blooming already and is beautiful. You cant go wrong ordering here.
I am looking for more roses and will probably order more early next year as it is getting too hot really now. Great work and great flower… love it Thanks to Wilson Brothers.

I have sent several emails to your company relating to how well your products are packaged. I have been working with a company out of Chicago, IL. for 10 years, and never received the great packaging you put your plants in. It seems that products sent in a bag without any gardening soil leaves a lot to be desired. Many times the products came in dead.
I have decided to make Wilson Brothers my Nursery from now on. Thank you for your great service and packaging.————————————–We are so glad you are pleased with your purchase! Thanks very much for the kind words and wonderful review! Beth | WBG 🙂
