Notes

'Tenacious' rose (Rosa 'Tenacious') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, 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. Yellow blend flowers open from early to late summer and smell sweet. Bees visit the blooms, and the light green leaves set them off well.

Pairs well with Garden phlox, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, and Prairie dropseed.
