Notes

'Wildfang' rose (Rosa 'Wildfang') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. It stays short and spreads, so it fills a front bed nicely. The medium pink blooms are fragrant and attract bees. Noack Rosen introduced it.

Pairs well with Lilac, Purple Coneflower coneflower, and Lily of the valley.
