アプリコットドリフト®ローズ

A low, spreading carpet of soft apricot-orange roses that fades to creamy peach and reblooms from spring straight through fall.

Apricot Drift® (Rosa ‘Meimirrote’) is a dwarf groundcover rose bred to deliver the romance of a classic rose on a tidy, knee-high frame. Clusters of small, fully double blooms open warm apricot and soften to a gentle peach as they age, so the plant carries several shades at once for a glowing, layered effect. Glossy green foliage stays dense and healthy, and the wide, mounding habit — just 1 to 2 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet across — spills beautifully over walls, edges beds, and weaves between taller perennials without ever crowding them.

Why growers choose the Apricot Drift Rose

• Months of color. It flowers in waves from spring to fall, reblooming reliably on new growth so the display refreshes itself all season.
• Warm, shifting hues. Double apricot-orange blooms mellow to soft peach, giving each cluster a sunset-like blend of tones.
• Cold-hardy and tough. Hardy in zones 4 through 9, it shrugs off winters that would set back many shrub roses and bounces into fast growth each spring.
• Strong disease resistance. Like the Drift family, it was selected for good resistance to blackspot and mildew, so the glossy foliage stays clean with minimal fuss.
• Effortless habit. Its low, spreading shape needs little shaping and naturally fills space, smothering weeds as it knits together.

Plant a drift of them as a flowering groundcover on a slope, line a front walk or border edge, tuck them into a sunny mixed bed, or let them cascade from a large container or wall. Their compact size and long bloom season make them an easy way to add dependable, season-long color wherever you have full sun.
