Notes
'In Loving Memory' rose (Rosa 'In Loving Memory') 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. It grows into a bushy shape with dark green leaves and fragrant, medium red blooms. Flowers open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Bob Matthews bred it, and Matthews Nurseries introduced it in 2015.
Pairs well with Switchgrass, Pink Hawaiian Coral peony, and Nelly Moser clematis.
