Notes
'Saratoga' rose (Rosa 'Saratoga') 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. Its fragrant white flowers appear in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the blooms. Eugene S. Boerner bred it in 1963.
Pairs well with Blue star, Korean spice viburnum, and Lily.
