Notes
'Aurore Sand' rose (Rosa 'Aurore Sand') is a vine for borders, cottage gardens, specimen planting, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Pink blend flowers are fragrant and open from early to late summer. Bees visit the blooms, and the foliage is glossy. Marcel Robichon bred it in 1964.
Pairs well with Cross vine, Amsonia, Cornflower, and Casa Blanca lily.
