Notes
'Farruca' rose (Rosa 'Farruca') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Mogens Nyegaard Olesen bred it in 2012. The bushy plant reaches about 5 to 6 feet tall and bears fragrant, medium red blooms that attract bees.
Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Gladiolus, and Aster.
