Phonetic Spelling:RO-zuh

Genus:Rosa

Species:Hybrida

Family:Rosaceae

The 'Autumn Sunset' rose exhibits remarkable resistance to diseases, including black spot. This robust and vigorous climbing plant is characterized by its delightful fruity fragrance. While it is primarily classified as a climber, it can also be cultivated as a shrub and is capable of flowering in its first year.

The method of planting will vary based on how the rose is acquired. For container-grown plants, the planting hole should be twice the size of the container. In the case of bare-root purchases, the hole should match the depth and width of the root system. Position the plant—whether from a container or bare-root—into the prepared hole, ensuring that the top of the root ball is slightly above the surrounding soil. After mixing the excavated soil with fresh organic compost, backfill the hole halfway and water thoroughly. Complete filling the hole and water again.

The leaves of this rose are medium-sized and have a glossy appearance.

Pruning should take place in late fall or early spring, as blooms will develop on both old and new growth.

Currently, there are no known issues with insects, diseases, or other plant-related problems.
