Notes
'Mme Nicolas Aussel' rose (Rosa 'Mme Nicolas Aussel') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Orange blooms open from early to late summer and have a sweet scent. Bees visit the flowers, and the dark green leaves set off the color. Gaujard introduced it in 1930.
Pairs well with Lanceleaf coreopsis, Obedient plant, and Karl Foerster feather reed grass.
