Notes
'Dublin Bay' rose (Rosa 'Dublin Bay') is a climbing shrub for walls, borders, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Medium red flowers are fragrant and appear from late spring into early autumn. Bees visit the blooms. It takes time to produce its best, and it suits walls better than pillars.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Fountain grass, and Stargazer lily.
