Notes

'Yengo' rose (Rosa 'Yengo') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Medium pink blooms are fragrant and appear from late spring into early autumn. Bees visit the flowers, and the bushy plant stays 16 to 24 inches tall. Mogens Nyegaard Olesen bred it in 2010.

Pairs well with Shasta daisy, Silver sage, and Karl Foerster feather reed grass.
