Notes

'Darlow's Enigma' rose (Rosa 'Darlow's Enigma') is a shrub for hedges, fragrant gardens, and pollinator plantings. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun to part shade and dry soil. White flowers open in early to late spring and again in early to late summer. Butterflies and bees visit the fragrant blooms. Thorns cover the stems, so plant it away from paths.

Pairs well with Pinxterbloom azalea, Slender mountain mint, and Ornamental onion.
