Rosa sb. 'The Fairy' (pink)

A compact and low-growing shrub rose, this plant has a mounding, spreading habit, making it ideal for borders, ground cover, or mass plantings. It is hardy in Zones 4-9 and thrives in temperatures ranging from 60°F to 80°F. Blooms profusely throughout the growing season with clusters of small, soft pink, double flowers that give a romantic feel to any landscape. While it doesn't provide notable fall color, its delicate beauty makes up for it. The plant produces small, inconspicuous hips but is more admired for its flowers than its fruit. Prefers well-drained, loamy soil enhanced with organic matter and performs best in full sun. It grows to a mature height of 2-3 feet with a similar spread. Highly resistant to deer, this hardy and disease-tolerant rose is an excellent low-maintenance choice for gardeners.
