Notes
'Warm Welcome' rose (Rosa 'Warm Welcome') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, 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. The fragrant orange-vermilion blooms open in late spring, again in summer, and again in autumn. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers. Christopher H. Warner bred it.
Pairs well with Niobe clematis, Catmint, and Lavender.
