Notes
'Niagara' rose (Rosa 'Niagara') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, specimen planting, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The white flowers are fragrant and attract bees. Blooms open in late spring, again in summer, and once more in early autumn. Mogens N. Olesen bred it in 1996.
Pairs well with Jackmanii clematis, Blue star, and Switchgrass.
