Notes

'Burnaby' rose (Rosa 'Burnaby') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Henry Matheson bred it, and the white blooms have good exhibition form. Bees visit the flowers, which open in late spring, again in early to late summer, and once more in early autumn.

Pairs well with Purple top, Creeping phlox, and Artichoke.
