Notes

'Ausday' rose (Rosa 'Ausday') is a shrub for borders and hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average moisture. The fragrant blooms open pink and fade to coppery pink with a yellow eye. David C. H. Austin bred it in 1992. The compact habit and medium green leaves suit a tidy hedge.

Pairs well with Feather reed grass, Viburnum, and Gladiolus.
