Notes
'Queen of Elegance' rose (Rosa 'Queen of Elegance') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The medium pink flowers have a strong, classic rose fragrance and do not fade. They repeat bloom from late spring into autumn, and bees visit them. Tom Carruth bred it, and the plants resist disease.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Clary sage, and Little bluestem.
