Notes
'Mrs Joseph H. Welch' rose (Rosa 'Mrs Joseph H. Welch') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and pollinator 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. Medium pink, fragrant blooms open from early to late summer. Bees visit the flowers, so it suits a pollinator garden. It was introduced in 1911.
Pairs well with Mountain mint, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, and Lemon thyme.
