Notes

'Mrs Wemyss Quin' rose (Rosa 'Mrs Wemyss Quin') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, 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. It grows into a bushy mound with dark green leaves. Fragrant deep yellow flowers open from early to late summer, and bees visit them. Bred in 1914, it makes a fine cut flower.

Pairs well with Little bluestem, Joe Pye weed, and Queen of Night tulip.
