Notes
'Mitzi' rose (Rosa 'Mitzi') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. 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 yellow blend blooms open in late spring, again in summer, and into early autumn. Bees visit them. Francis Meilland bred it in 1956.
Pairs well with Baby's breath, Blue wild indigo, and The President clematis.
