Notes
'Annapolis' rose (Rosa 'Annapolis') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. It grows into a bushy mound of dark green leaves with deep pink blooms. Flowers open in late spring, again in summer, and once more in early autumn, and bees visit them. Mogens Nyegaard Olesen bred it in 2006.
Pairs well with Gaura, Ornamental onion, Spurge, and Big bluestem.
