Notes
'Pastella' rose (Rosa 'Pastella') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. 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 stays compact and bears fragrant pink blend blooms in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Hans Jürgen Evers bred it, and Rosen Tantau introduced it in 2004.
Pairs well with Hicksii yew, Fountain grass, Bouquet peony, and Blue jasmine.
