I am curious if anyone has experience with OSO easy roses. I checked the database and appreciate the info, but didn't see any photos. (I haven't added any photos either, my bad...actually my busy).

I like the pictures of Peachy Cream and Paprika on hmf and elsewhere. Fragrant Spreader may work in a spot of my garden, but it would depend how much it spreads.

I already have Meilland "groundcover" roses that are much bigger than expected. I love them, but they are getting huge - 6' canes as thick as my index finger in their second year. I cut them back a bit this year. I was thinking about training them on a tuteur, but I would have to buy/make one first. Oso Easy Cherry Pie -Meilland Candia looks like it would be nice planted in front of said tuteur, unless it gets huge also. My Meilland groundcover rose is my most disease resistant rose - completely disease free close to the ground in a no spray garden bed.

It seems that these roses have been around a while, but I haven't found many reviews on them. Elsewhere in this forum, Blissful Garden ( I think) mentioned that she prefers the drift roses. Her OSO easy roses got bigger than expected. She is in a much warmer zone than I am, so I don't know if the same would happen here.
