AARS Press
Release, Sept. 19, 2008: Recognizing that consumers
want roses that are easy to care for, in 2004, AARS stopped
spraying fungicides on all shrub roses in its nationwide test
gardens. Carefree Spirit is the first and only landscape shrub
to date to endure this real-world testing and prevail as a
Winner. This mounding rose produces deep red blossoms with white
twinkles in their eyes; the blooms finish pink as they bask in
the sun. Carefree Spirit amplifies the disease resistance
associated with its Carefree lineage, with more than ten years
of hybridization improvement. Much like its parent rose,
Carefree Delight™, which was a All-America Rose Selections
Winner in 1996, the petals are beautifully set amongst abundant
glossy, dark green foliage, however it has even better disease
resistance, habit and blooming power, and will perform well in
any area of the country.
