Description

Rosa 'Oregold' can tolerate desert heat if it has shade from the afternoon sun. In other areas, it can be planted in full sun. It needs a moderate amount of water. This rose has a mild, fruity fragrance. It reaches 4' tall and 3' wide and has long, cuttable stems. The base of the plants tend to be bare and have somewhat angular top growth. It blooms during the spring and summer; flowers are a beautiful gold color.

Water Saving Tip:

Turn sprinklers on and view them operating at least once a month.

Check for and fix missing drip emitters, leaking sprinklers, valves, and pipes. One broken spray sprinkler can waste 100 gallons in a 10 minute watering cycle.
