Notes
'Tropical Twist' rose (Rosa 'Tropical Twist') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, 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 fragrant orange-pink blooms appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn, and bees visit them. John K. Walden bred it in 1998.
Pairs well with Big bluestem, Jackmanii clematis, and Ornamental onion.
