Notes
'Lapstur' rose (Rosa 'Lapstur') 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. Robert Laperrière bred it. The bushy plant has small, dark green leaves and few or no thorns. Orange-red blooms open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them.
Pairs well with Bobo hydrangea, Amsonia, Black-eyed Susan, and Lily.
