Red Drift® Rose 1 Live Shrub – 2 Gallon Pot – Rosa 'Meigalpio'

Red Drift® Rose (Rosa 'Meigalpio') is a compact, repeat-flowering landscape rose valued for its petite red blossoms, dark green foliage, and naturally low, mounding growth habit. Part of the Drift® Rose collection, this ornamental shrub is especially notable for producing some of the smallest flowers in the collection. Its colorful blooms and dense foliage make it suitable for sunny garden borders, low landscape plantings, and ornamental containers.

From mid-spring through mid-fall, Red Drift® Rose produces abundant clusters of small, red flowers that create a colorful display against its dark green leaves. Bloom timing and intensity may vary depending on climate, sunlight, and seasonal growing conditions. Its compact, mounding habit provides a neat appearance, while its repeat-flowering characteristics contribute extended seasonal interest.

Red Drift® Rose generally performs best in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. It prefers moderate moisture and good air circulation. This cultivar is recognized for its winter hardiness and generally good resistance to common rose diseases, although resistance does not mean immunity. Its low-growing, mounding form makes it suitable for garden edging, low borders, foundation plantings, mass plantings, and outdoor containers.
