Notes

'The Pilgrim' rose (Rosa 'The Pilgrim') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and loamy or clay soil. The upright canes reach about 41 to 120 inches tall. Fragrant yellow blooms have lighter outer petals and appear in late spring, summer, and autumn. Bees visit the flowers, and David C. H. Austin bred it.

Pairs well with Jackmanii clematis, Korean spice viburnum, and Lily.
