Notes

'Calypso' rose (Rosa 'Calypso') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. It has a compact habit and dark green leaves. The fragrant apricot blooms open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Bailey Nurseries introduced it in 2013.

Pairs well with Bowl of Beauty peony, Gladiator ornamental onion, and Indian Summer rudbeckia.
