Notes
'Sakura-Gasumi' rose (Rosa 'Sakura-Gasumi') 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. Light pink, fragrant flowers open in late spring, again in summer, and again in early autumn. Bees visit the blooms. Seizo Suzuki bred it in 1999.
Pairs well with Limelight hydrangea, Blue-eyed grass, and The President clematis.
