Notes

'Mrs Charles E. Pearson' rose (Rosa 'Mrs Charles E. Pearson') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The fragrant orange blend flowers open from early to late summer and attract bees. The source lists an introduction in 1913, so it is an old garden favorite.

Pairs well with Coral Charm peony, Little bluestem, and Queen of Night tulip.
