Notes
'White Knight' rose (Rosa 'White Knight') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. The white blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Francis Meilland bred it in 1957. It grows upright to about 47 inches tall, and flowers appear in late spring, summer, and early autumn.
Pairs well with Purple top, Tuberose, and Artichoke.
