Notes
'Molly McGredy' rose (Rosa 'Molly McGredy') 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. Red blend blooms open in late spring, again in summer, and again in early autumn, and bees visit them. Samuel Darragh bred it in 1969.
Pairs well with Purple Coneflower coneflower, False indigo, and Nelly Moser clematis.
