Notes
'Gwyneth Jones' rose (Rosa 'Gwyneth Jones') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and containers. 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-pink blooms appear in late spring, again in summer, and into early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Samuel McGredy II bred it in 1925.
Pairs well with Delphinium, Jackmanii clematis, and Fountain grass.
