'Martha Drew' rose (Rosa 'Martha Drew') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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 upright and bears fragrant white blooms in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Samuel McGredy II bred it in 1919.
Pairs well with False indigo, Fountain grass, and Jackmanii clematis.
