Notes
'Sun Sprinkles' rose (Rosa 'Sun Sprinkles') is a shrub for borders, containers, cottage gardens, 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. The compact plant stays 18 to 24 inches tall and bears fragrant, deep yellow blooms that attract bees. Black spot can show up, so give it good air flow. John K. Walden bred it in 1999.
Pairs well with Great blue lobelia, Japanese forest grass, and Niobe clematis.
