Notes
'Royal Parade' rose (Rosa 'Royal Parade') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Medium pink, fragrant blooms open from early to late summer and attract bees. Mogens N. Olesen and Pernille Olesen bred it in 1996 as a sport of 'Victory Parade'.
Pairs well with Little bluestem, Nelly Moser clematis, and Queen of Night tulip.
