Notes

'Lemon Drift' rose (Rosa 'Lemon Drift') is a shrub for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. The medium yellow blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. Alain A. Meilland bred it, and it forms a bushy mound that stays low.

Pairs well with Lavender, Catmint, and Rosemary.
