'Sophia Renaissance' rose (Rosa 'Sophia Renaissance') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, specimen planting, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The large amber-yellow blooms have a honey fragrance and attract bees. Poulsen Roser A/S introduced it in 1999.
