New roses 2016
Rosa 'CNLA 333'
Oscar Peterson rose
Oscar Peterson is the latest rose to be introduced in the Canadian Artists series. The plant has an upright growth habit that is easy to maintain and the glossy leaves have a high disease resistance. The striking feature of this Zone 3 rose is the very large (10 cm), semi-double, outfacing, pure white coloured flowers with a yellow centre that appear in June and then again in mid-August. Grows 1 by 1 m.

Rosa 'RADpastel' USPPAF, CPBR
Peach Lemonade rose
This multi-coloured rose is sweet and special. Blooms start out lemon yellow, then fade to a blush pink. Continual blooms and long flowering time mean yellow, white and pink blooms all at the same time! Also exceptionally disease resistant. Requires full sun, is cold hardy to zone 4 and will grow 3 ft. tall x 3 ft. wide in a rounded shape.
