Notes

'Petite Peach' rose (Rosa 'Petite Peach') is a shrub for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. It has a bushy habit and dark green leaves. The apricot blooms appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Teresa Byington bred it as a sport of 'Petit Pink'.

Pairs well with Bartzella peony, Japanese spirea, and Lily.
