'Ichigohime' rose (Rosa 'Ichigohime') 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. Pink blend blooms open from early to late summer and have a sweet fragrance. Bees visit the flowers. Shunsuke Takeuchi bred it in 1999.
