Notes
'Evelyn' rose (Rosa 'Evelyn') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and specimen plantings. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The fragrant apricot flowers appear in late spring, again from early to late summer, and into early autumn, and bees visit the blooms. David Austin Roses, Ltd. introduced it in 1991.
Pairs well with Clary sage, Lily, Nelly Moser clematis, and Cornflower.
