Notes
'Basildon Bond' rose (Rosa 'Basildon Bond') 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. Harkness & Co bred it in 1980. The fragrant apricot blooms open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them.
Pairs well with Dense blazing star, Little bluestem, and Culver’s root.
