Notes
'Lady Meilland' rose (Rosa 'Lady Meilland') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Alain Meilland bred it, and the fragrant orange-pink blooms attract bees. It blooms in late spring, again from early to late summer, and once more in early autumn.
Pairs well with Pineapple sage, Indian-hawthorn, and Mondo grass.
