Notes
'Adair Roche' rose (Rosa 'Adair Roche') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The pink blend blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Flowers open in late spring, again in summer, and once more in early autumn. Samuel Darragh bred it in 1968.
Pairs well with Foxglove, Delphinium, and Fountain grass.
