Notes
'Sugar Moon' rose (Rosa 'Sugar Moon') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and specimen planting. 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 white flowers spiral open from pointed buds and smell of citrus and rose. Blooms reach up to five inches across and last well in a vase. Christian Bedard bred it, and it flowers again through the season.
Pairs well with Delphinium, Dense blazing star, and Little bluestem.
