Notes
'Flaming Cover' rose (Rosa 'Flaming Cover') is a bushy shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and hedges. 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 fragrant orange blooms open in late spring, again in early to late summer, and once more in early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Mogens Nyegaard Olesen bred it in 2007.
Pairs well with Pink Hawaiian Coral peony, Ornamental onion, and Indian grass.
