Color Splash® absolutely lives up to its name, with an immense number of bi-colored blooms covering the shrub from summer through frost. The petals are bi-colored, with red to apricot or coral-pink shades on the outside of each petal giving way to a creamy interior. The high petal count of this Floribunda rose, sometimes known by its cultivar name ‘KORbaymun’, attracts pollinators. Color Splash® is less fussy and has lower maintenance requirements than many other rose cultivars.
Good disease resistance helps to ensure the lush dark green leaves remain an attractive background for the flower show all summer long. Deer are not particularly drawn to Color Splash®. This selection is grown on its own root, so it is especially hardy and tough. Use this vigorous rose in low hedges, as a standalone specimen, in a rose border, or as a backdrop in a mixed perennial bed.
Color Splash® Rose Care
The Color Splash® rose prefers a location in full sun, although in hot areas, afternoon shade can provide welcome relief. The best soil for this rose is rich in organic matter and well drained. Work plenty of compost into the site prior to planting, and maintain a thick mulch layer over the root zone. For maximum vigor and blooms, apply a fertilizer labeled for roses in the spring according to manufacturer instructions. This rose has average water requirements, so once established, provide it with supplemental irrigation weekly during extended dry spells.
Snip off spent flowers to encourage reblooming. Leave canes intact through the winter and cut them back to about 8 inches above the soil line, just as the plant begins to break dormancy.
Color Splash® Rose Spacing
The Color Splash® rose has an upright habit, growing 5-6 feet tall and 2-4 feet wide. In a hedge, position multiple plants 2-3 feet apart. In foundation plantings or when using the rose as a specimen planting, give this rose 4 feet of space or more.

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.

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.
