Notes
'Sir Tristram' rose (Rosa 'Sir Tristram') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Medium red blooms are fragrant and appear in late spring, early to late summer, and early autumn. Bees visit the flowers. Brian B. Attfield bred it.
Pairs well with Ornamental onion, Blue grama, and High-bush blueberry.
