Notes
'Shining Hour' rose (Rosa 'Shining Hour') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. 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 deep yellow blooms are fragrant and appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers, and the upright shape suits a mixed border. William A. Warriner bred it in 1990.
Pairs well with Purple Coneflower coneflower, Foxglove, and Nelly Moser clematis.
