Notes
'Miss Cynthia Forde' rose (Rosa 'Miss Cynthia Forde') 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 bushy plant bears fragrant, deep pink blooms in late spring, again in early to late summer, and once more in early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Hugh Dickson bred it in 1909.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Switchgrass, and Bridal wreath spiraea.
