Notes
'Reine du Forez' rose (Rosa 'Reine du Forez') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The upright stems carry fragrant red blend blooms against dark green leaves. Flowers open in late spring, again in summer, and into early autumn, and bees visit them. Paul Croix bred it.
Pairs well with Bouquet peony, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, and Clematis.
