Notes

'Natchez' rose (Rosa 'Natchez') is a compact shrub for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Pernille Olesen and Mogens Nyegaard Olesen bred it in 1994. It bears clusters of small, medium pink blooms with a sweet scent, and bees visit them from late spring into early autumn.

Pairs well with Gladiator ornamental onion, Hummelo betony, and Nelly Moser clematis.
