Notes
'Sweet Juliet' rose (Rosa 'Sweet Juliet') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. The fragrant apricot blooms open in spring, summer, and autumn, and bees and butterflies visit them. David C. H. Austin bred it in 1989.
Pairs well with Lavender, Lady's mantle, Catmint, and Lamb’s ear.
