Notes
'Zéphirine Drouhin' rose (Rosa 'Zéphirine Drouhin') is a climbing shrub for borders, cottage gardens, specimen planting, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun to part shade and average to moist soil of most types. Its medium pink flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. Few or no thorns make it easy to handle. Bizot bred it in 1868.
Pairs well with Nelly Moser clematis, Stargazer lily, and Gaura.
