Notes
'Fay’s Folly' rose (Rosa 'Fay’s Folly') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and hedges. 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 orange blend flowers open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the blooms. Kordes bred it, and the compact, dense habit stays under about 47 inches tall.
Pairs well with Buckeye Belle peony, Japanese forest grass, and Big bluestem.
