Notes
'Twist' rose (Rosa 'Twist') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and hedges. 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 pink blend flowers open in late spring, again in summer, and into early autumn. Bees visit the blooms against dark green leaves. L. Pernille Olesen bred it.
Pairs well with Switchgrass, Casa Blanca lily, and Beautyberry.
