Notes

'Red Ribbons' rose (Rosa 'Red Ribbons') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Its spreading habit and dark green leaves set off the dark red, fragrant blooms that open from early to late summer. Bees visit the flowers. Wilhelm Kordes III bred it.

Pairs well with Bartzella peony, Bridal wreath spiraea, and Little bluestem.
