Notes

'Malcolm Sargent' rose (Rosa 'Malcolm Sargent') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Its fragrant, medium red flowers open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the blooms. Harkness & Co bred it in 1987.

Pairs well with Purple top, Society garlic, and Artichoke.
