This spring, Bailey Nurseries is bringing out a new medium-yellow rose to join its popular Easy Elegance line of no-fuss, long-blooming roses.
Called High Voltage, this new shrub rose features double blooms and a high petal count. It’s hardy to USDA Zone 4, making it fine for Hudson Valley winters. It has an upright growth habit and should reach a height of 3 to 5 feet.
Like others in the Easy Elegance collection, High Voltage has been bred for its resistance to common rose diseases such as powdery mildew and black spot. Look for it in the better nurseries and garden centers.
Bailey is a family-owned wholesale nursery based in St. Paul, Minn. For more information, visit EasyEleganceRoses.com.

Bill Cary grew up in Louisville, Ky. His gardening was limited to growing parsley and impatiens on the windowsill of Manhattan walkups until the mid-1990s when he bought a rundown old chicken farm on 8 acres in the Hudson Valley. Now he spends his weekends chasing deer, hacking away at invasive shrubs and vines and wondering why he doesn`t have more meadow and less lawn.
