Notes
'Snow Ballet' rose (Rosa 'Snow Ballet') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. White, fragrant blooms open from early to late summer and attract bees. The compact plants stay 16 to 24 inches tall and spread 39 to 59 inches wide. W. Clayworth bred it in 1977.
Pairs well with Gaura, Japanese forest grass, and Bush honeysuckle.
