Rosa 'Harwelcome'
Livin' Easy Floribunda Rose
Rosa 'Harwelcome' (also marketed as Livin' Easy™) is a floribunda rose showcasing warm apricot‑orange blooms that sometimes carry soft yellow or pink undertones. The double blossoms open in successive waves from late spring through fall, emitting a moderate citrus‑sweet fragrance. Its glossy, deep green foliage presents a clean backdrop to the colorful display and sustains its health throughout the season.
Originally bred in the United Kingdom and introduced in 1992, Livin' Easy earned the All‑America Rose Selections award in 1996 for its overall garden performance.
Planting & care
Roses reward a sunny, open site with at least six hours of direct light, good air movement, and well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Water deeply and less often, soaking the root zone while keeping the leaves dry, and mulch with two to three inches of compost or shredded bark held back from the canes. Feed repeat-blooming roses in early spring as growth starts and again after the first flush, then prune in late winter to remove dead or crossing canes and open the center. Floribundas bloom in generous clusters, and light shaping keeps the framework rounded and full.
