Notes
'Madge Wildfire' rose (Rosa 'Madge Wildfire') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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 upright, well-branched shrub bears fragrant orange-red blooms in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers, and the purple foliage adds contrast.
Pairs well with Ox-eye daisy, Perennial candytuft, and Niobe clematis.
