Notes
'Sarah Arnot' rose (Rosa 'Sarah Arnot') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. It has an upright habit and fragrant, medium pink blooms that appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. David Arnot bred it in 1958 and named it for his mother.
