Notes
'Fragrant Lavender Simplicity' rose (Rosa 'Fragrant Lavender Simplicity') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, hedges, and cut flowers. 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 upright canes reach about 47 to 59 inches tall and carry dark green leaves. Mauve blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Keith W. Zary bred it in 2007.
Pairs well with Lamb’s ear, Arrowwood viburnum, and Red spider lily.
