Notes

'Ruth Leuwerik' rose (Rosa 'Ruth Leuwerik') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. Fragrant medium red blooms appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Gerrit De Ruiter bred it.

Pairs well with Goldenrod, Hollyhock, and Casa Blanca lily.
