Notes
'Leslie Holland' rose (Rosa 'Leslie Holland') 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. Dark red blooms are fragrant and appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Hugh Dickson bred it in 1911.
Pairs well with Silver sage, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, and Gladiolus.
