Notes
'Nellie Parker' rose (Rosa 'Nellie Parker') is an upright shrub for borders, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. It bears fragrant white blooms in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Hugh Dickson bred it in 1916.
Pairs well with Bigleaf hydrangea, Fountain grass, and Blue jasmine.
