Notes

'Beachcomber' rose (Rosa 'Beachcomber') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, 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. It has a bushy habit and grows about 30 to 39 inches tall. The russet blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Samuel Darragh bred it in 1987.

Pairs well with Fountain grass, Queen of Night tulip, and Blue jasmine.
