Professional Growing Information Of course every flower has it's attributes, but OSO Pink Cup Cake really stands out in many ways. What she lacks in fragrance, she makes up in so many ways. The large coral pink blossoms cover the plant almost continually until hard frost and contrast nicely with the burgundy & dark green leaves. Of the two dozen rose bushes/vines I grow, this one has been the most disease and bug resistance of them all! We live in Zone 5B Michigan, where she is in full sun.

Like other Oso Easy roses, Pink Cupcake rebels against the idea of roses being difficult to grow. No spraying is needed on this disease resistant variety, and it blooms all season without deadheading.
It's a delicious shade of pink, with a touch of coral to keep it from being too sweet. Large flowers pop against the glossy green leaves. The clean, disease-resisant foliage has reddish new growth. Look for up to 20 petals on each flower of this floriferous, disease-resistant rose.

This little rose bush is amazing! It blooms and then reblooms and reblooms again and again! It’s a hard worker for sure and the color of little blooms are beautiful! I have 2 of these and just when I think they are done for the season....they bloom again!
