Notes
'Chinatown' rose (Rosa 'Chinatown') is a shrub for fragrant hedges, climbing on supports, and cutting borders. Its lemon-yellow to deep yellow blooms have pink edges. It flowers in late spring, again from early to late summer, and once more in early autumn. The plant grows 47 to 73 inches tall and 35 to 47 inches wide. Niels Dines Poulsen bred it, and Samuel McGredy and Son introduced it in 1962.
Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Boxwood, and Black-eyed Susan.
