Welcome to Wingard’s Drift® Roses (photos and information courtesy of Star Roses)
Drift® Roses are groundcover roses made easy®. They were bred to stay manageable in size and bloom from spring to frost without a lot of work from you. They are a cross between full-size groundcover roses and miniature roses. From the former, they kept toughness, disease resistance and winter hardiness. From the miniatures, they inherited their well-managed size and repeat-blooming nature.
The low, manageable habit of Drift® Roses makes them perfect for gardens small to large, for planters, and for mass commercial plantings. They brighten up borders, fill in empty spaces, meander around established plants, and can control erosion on hillsides and slopes.
Their mature size, no matter the variety is approximately 1.5’ tall and 2.5’ wide and growth characteristics are the same. You may order these online and pick them up in the store.
