Notes
'Colette' rose (Rosa 'Colette') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and loamy or clay soil. The fragrant, light pink blooms age to lighter pink and attract bees. It flowers in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Dr. Keith W. Zary bred it in 1990.
Pairs well with Bridal wreath spiraea, Baby's breath, The President clematis, and Lily.
