Notes
'Kardinal Piffl' rose (Rosa 'Kardinal Piffl') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, specimen planting, 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 orange blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Leenders Bros bred it in 1925, and the glossy, dark green leaves grow on a compact, dense bush.
Pairs well with Blue wild indigo, Baby's breath, and Casa Blanca lily.
