Color Cocktail Rose, Rosa Color Cocktail, or Rosa Mellowmayo, is a vigorous, easy-to-grow, shrub rose variety that provides a gorgeous mix of two or more rose colors. In the late summer, the flowers of the Color Cocktail Rose open in a deep yellow color, but transform into blossoms of pastel pink as the flowers mature. These stunning multi-tonal blooms are ensconced in glossy, vivid green foliage with serrated edges. The Color Cocktail Rose has low, arching stems and grows to a height of 2 to 3 feet with an equal spread. This fragrant, versatile rose is perfect for large landscaping projects, or for smaller displays.

The Color Cocktail Rose has an upright and compact growing habit. This low-maintenance, free-blooming variety attracts butterflies and hummingbirds and supports critical pollinators. It makes an excellent cut flower for bouquets and arrangements. It can easily be dried or preserved for both its color and fragrance. They make a colorful splash in any container or pot and can live for years with proper care, and they are disease resistant.

Color Cocktail Rose Care

The Color Cocktail Rose will thrive in full sun and moist, well-drained soil. It requires average water and good air circulation. Your Cocktail Rose should receive at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Fertilize your Color Cocktail Rose in early spring, and again just before it flowers. It should be pruned after the blooming season has ended in the late fall to encourage denser form and better blooms in the season to come. After planting, spread mulch over the root system of the plant, but don’t allow mulch to touch the stems.

Color Cocktail Rose Spacing

The Color Cocktail Rose is often planted in mass and makes a beautiful classic focal point in any garden or landscape. They should be spaced 12 inches apart when planted in rows, and make a gorgeous low hedge when planted alongside a second staggered row. They work well in containers and are incredibly easy to grow, provided the container is deep and has adequate drainage.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
