Notes

'Scentimental' rose (Rosa 'Scentimental') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. The red flowers are streaked with creamy white, and every bloom looks different. They smell sweet and spicy, and bees and butterflies visit them. Carruth bred it, and Weeks Roses introduced it in 1999.

Pairs well with Feather reed grass, The President clematis, and Casa Blanca lily.
