Notes
'Mme Chiang Kai-shek' rose (Rosa 'Mme Chiang Kai-shek') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Its fragrant, light yellow flowers open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the blooms, and the dark green leaves set off the flowers on an upright plant.
Pairs well with Creeping phlox, Ornamental onion, and Indian grass.
