Notes
'Kantha Selvon' rose (Rosa 'Kantha Selvon') 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. The upright plant stays under 30 inches tall and has medium green leaves. Fragrant orange blooms attract bees from late spring to early autumn. Derrick Everitt bred it in 1999.
Pairs well with Baby's breath, Blue wild indigo, and Casa Blanca lily.
