Notes

'Ringo' rose (Rosa 'Ringo') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The fragrant flowers open from early to late summer and again in autumn. Butterflies and bees visit the blooms. Christopher Warner bred it.

Pairs well with Little bluestem, Gladiator ornamental onion, and Green Spice coral bells.
