This is my second Emily Carr Rose bush. The first one was planted in our home in Red Deer and thrived in a sunny bed. This new bush has been planted in a Northwest facing bed at the Lakehouse in Norglenwod on Sylvan Lake, but due to the openess of the yard should
receive ample sun.
The Emily Carr Rose bush belongs to the Canadian Artist Series and is a compact plant growing to a height of 1.1 to 1.5 meters. and a width of about 1 meter.

The dark red to near black blooms open to deep red semi-double blooms from spring to frost. Glossy green foliage turns to golden yellow in the fall.
This bush is vigorous, hardy and disease resistant but intolerant of standing water.
