Notes

'WEKsecunk' rose (Rosa 'WEKsecunk') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The compact, upright shrub reaches about 39 inches tall and wide. Fragrant pink blooms with deep pink edges and yellow undertones appear from late spring to early autumn and attract bees. Christian Bédard bred it.
