Notes
'Donatella' rose (Rosa 'Donatella') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Light pink, fragrant blooms open from early to late summer and attract bees. Michele Meilland Richardier bred it in 2011.
Pairs well with Blanket flower, Royal Purple smoketree, and Japanese forest grass.
