Notes
'Koko Loko' rose (Rosa 'Koko Loko') 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 or part sun and loamy or clay soil. The blooms are lavender and creamy chocolate, and they have a medium fragrance. Flowers repeat from late spring into autumn, and bees visit them. Christian Bedard bred it, and Weeks Roses introduced it in 2012.
Pairs well with Sweet William, Stargazer lily, Niobe clematis, and Johnny jump up.
