Notes
'My Girl' rose (Rosa 'My Girl') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The deep pink blooms are fragrant and attract bees. They appear in late spring, again in early to late summer, and once more in early autumn. Peter Ping Lim bred it in 2008.
Pairs well with Shirley Temple peony, Hummelo betony, and Standing Ovation little bluestem.
