Notes

'Impatient' rose (Rosa 'Impatient') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. It grows upright with light green leaves and fragrant orange-red blooms from early to late summer. Bees visit the flowers. William A. Warriner bred it in 1982.

Pairs well with Little bluestem, Fountain grass, and Queen of Night tulip.
