Notes
'Miss Willmott' rose (Rosa 'Miss Willmott') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, specimen planting, 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. The fragrant, light yellow blooms appear in late spring, again from early to late summer, and in early autumn. Bees visit the flowers, and the glossy, dark green leaves set them off. Samuel McGredy II bred it.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Switchgrass, Nelly Moser clematis, and Casa Blanca lily.
