Notes
'Saluda' rose (Rosa 'Saluda') is a 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. The upright plant grows 18 to 24 inches tall and has dark green leaves. Orange blooms open in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Michael C. Williams bred it in 2006.
Pairs well with Blue-eyed grass, Blue fescue, and Limelight hydrangea.
