Notes
'Sheer Elegance' rose (Rosa 'Sheer Elegance') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen plantings. 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 grows upright and reaches about 41 inches tall. Fragrant orange-pink blooms appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. Jerry F. Twomey bred it in 1990.
Pairs well with Butterfly bush, Fountain grass, and Blue mistflower.
