Notes
'Hombre' rose (Rosa 'Hombre') is a shrub for borders, containers, cottage gardens, 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 pink blend blooms are fragrant and appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Nelson F. Jolly bred it in 1983.
Pairs well with Baby's breath, Blue wild indigo, and Indian grass.
