Notes
'Burbank' rose (Rosa 'Burbank') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, 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. It bears fragrant pink blend blooms in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Luther 'Burbank' bred it, and the bushy plant grows about 5 to 6 feet tall.
Pairs well with Joe Pye weed, Fountain grass, and Nelly Moser clematis.
