Notes
'Loulou de Cacharel' rose (Rosa 'Loulou de Cacharel') 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. It grows about 31 to 39 inches tall with dark green, leathery leaves. Red blend flowers open in late spring, again in summer, and again in early autumn, and bees visit them. Francois Dorieux II bred it in 1999.
Pairs well with Shasta daisy, Switchgrass, and Casa Blanca lily.
