Notes
'Jack Frost' rose (Rosa 'Jack Frost') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, hedges, 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 white flowers are fragrant and attract bees. Blooms come in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Rob Somerfield bred it in 2017.
Pairs well with Clary sage, The President clematis, Stargazer lily, and Ironweed.
