Notes
'Tickled Pink' rose (Rosa 'Tickled Pink') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. Its fragrant pink blooms attract butterflies and bees. Rust can affect it, so give it good air flow. Frank Bart Schuurman bred it in 1999.
Pairs well with Gaura, Balloon flower, Boxwood, and Stargazer lily.
