Notes
'Emily Gray' rose (Rosa 'Emily Gray') is a vine for borders, cottage gardens, specimens, and privacy screens. 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 deep yellow blooms are fragrant and appear from early to late summer. Bees visit the flowers. Dr. A. H. Williams bred it, and B.R. Cant introduced it in 1918.
Pairs well with Nelly Moser clematis, Perennial candytuft, and Casa Blanca lily.
