Notes
'Ultimate Pink' rose (Rosa 'Ultimate Pink') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, 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. Light pink, fragrant blooms open from early to late summer, and bees visit them. Keith W. Zary bred it in 1998.
Pairs well with Japanese forest grass, Coralbells, and Oakleaf hydrangea.
