Notes
'Grand Prix' rose (Rosa 'Grand Prix') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Its compact habit fits small spaces. Fragrant apricot blooms open from early to late summer and draw bees. Terra Nigra BV introduced it in 1970.
Pairs well with Obedient plant, Stargazer lily, and Nelly Moser clematis.
