'Hansestadt Rostock' rose (Rosa 'Hansestadt Rostock') is a shrub for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun to part shade and loamy or clay soil. The bushy, compact plant grows 24 to 31 inches tall with glossy, medium green leaves.
