Notes
'Wapiti' rose (Rosa 'Wapiti') 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 red blend blooms are fragrant and attract bees. They open in late spring, again in summer, and again in early autumn. Alain Meilland bred it in 1990.
Pairs well with Baby's breath, Black-eyed Susan, and Blue grama.
