Notes
'Kosmos' rose (Rosa 'Kosmos') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. 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 bushy plant has medium green leaves and fragrant white flowers. Blooms appear in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Tim-Hermann Kordes bred it in 1985.
Pairs well with Wild geranium, Heather, Lily of the valley, and Clematis.
