Notes

'Emotion Blue' rose (Rosa 'Emotion Blue') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. It has a bushy habit and fragrant mauve blooms from early to late summer. Bees visit the flowers, and you can cut stems for bouquets.

Pairs well with Bartzella peony, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Niobe clematis, and Oakleaf hydrangea.
