Notes

'Aya' rose (Rosa 'Aya') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Its upright stems carry fragrant mauve blooms in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Obedient plant, and Jackmanii clematis.
