Notes
'Cornsilk' rose (Rosa 'Cornsilk') is a shrub for borders, containers, 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. The light yellow blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Flowers open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. F. Harmon Saville bred it in 1983.
Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Jackmanii clematis, and Mexican hat.
