Notes

'Mon Cheri' rose (Rosa 'Mon Cheri') 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 red blend blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Flowers appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Christensen bred it in 1981.

Pairs well with Blue-eyed grass, Sum and Substance hosta, and Indian grass.
