Notes
'Anniversary' rose (Rosa 'Anniversary') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Medium yellow flowers are fragrant and open in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the blooms. Bob Matthews bred it, and it grows in an upright form with dark green leaves.
Pairs well with Clary sage, Ornamental onion, Blue jasmine, and Guacamole hosta.
