Notes
'Mona Lisa' rose (Rosa 'Mona Lisa') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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 orange-red flowers open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the blooms. Michèle Meilland Richardier bred it in 2003.
Pairs well with Clary sage, Feverfew, and Blue grama.
