Notes
'Lydia' rose (Rosa 'Lydia') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The orange blooms are fragrant and appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Reimer Kordes bred it, and Interplant BV introduced it in 1995.
Pairs well with Baby's breath, Creeping thyme, Lily, and Ornamental onion.
