Notes
'Paradise' rose (Rosa 'Paradise') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The fragrant pink blend blooms open in late spring, summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Thorns cover the upright stems, so wear gloves when you prune. Michael H. Walsh bred it in 1907.
Pairs well with Asiatic jasmine, Sundrops, and Mondo grass.
