Notes

'Ruby Ice' rose (Rosa 'Ruby Ice') is a compact shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Red blend flowers are fragrant and open from early to late summer against dark green leaves. Bees visit the blooms. Tim-Hermann Kordes bred it.

Pairs well with Quick Fire panicle hydrangea, Johnny jump up, and Casa Blanca lily.
