A beautiful garden doesn't have to be complicated. The Earth-Kind® Shrubs Bundle brings together three tough, free-flowering shrub roses chosen for their distinctive colors, generous blooms, and ability to bring lasting character to the landscape. From soft pink flowers and decorative rose hips to color-changing blooms that shift from yellow through orange and pink to crimson, this collection celebrates roses that offer plenty to admire without demanding a fussy, formal setting.
Color & Bloom Combination: This trio is full of color and transformation. Carefree Beauty brings abundant pink blooms and large hips that add interest after flowering. Mutabilis, affectionately known as the “Butterfly Rose,” is especially captivating: its single flowers open sulfur yellow and gradually change through orange and pink to crimson, allowing several colors to appear on the plant at once. Caldwell Pink rounds out the palette with clusters of double lilac-pink blooms on a compact bush. Together, these roses create a lively combination of flower forms, shifting shades, and seasonal interest.
How to Use in Your Garden: Use these shrubs to build a colorful, relaxed planting in a sunny bed or mixed border. Carefree Beauty makes a wonderful central feature, with its pink blooms and decorative hips adding interest beyond the main flowering period. Mutabilis is ideal where its changing colors can be seen from a path, patio, or frequently used garden space, so you can appreciate the way its flowers evolve. Position Caldwell Pink toward the front or middle of the border, where its compact size and clusters of lilac-pink blooms can create a soft transition between larger shrubs and smaller perennials. Planted together, these roses can form a layered, informal garden with color that changes throughout the season.

We do ask that you make sure the weather in your zone is suitable for receiving and plating your roses.
Antique Rose Emporium is in Texas and the December weather can be anywhere from below freezing to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. But our weather is extremely mild compared to the northern United States.
We want you to have the best success possible with your roses and ask that you let us care for them over the winter and receive them at the time that you plan to plant.
Please ensure that you are not experiencing freezing temperatures and the ground is not frozen when you plan to receive your rose.
