Rosa Flower Carpet (Red)

Carpet (Red) Rose

Flower Carpet Red makes a low mound of red flowers with yellow centers. New leaves have a reddish tint, becoming dark green with burgundy edges. Repeated bloom carries color from spring into fall.

Grow in sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Water regularly while roots establish; established plants tolerate brief dry spells. Protect young plants in cold winters.
