Apricot Drift

I was thumbing through a landscaping magazine today, and noticed this little gem:

Apricot Drift "Meimirrot" Photo from the Conard-Pyle Co.

Drift roses were introduced by Conard-Pyle, the same company that gave us Knock-Out roses. Drift roses are groundcover varieties with a mature size of 2 feet wide and 2 feet tall. "Meimirrot" (pictured) blooms continuously all season long and disease resistance is exceptional. (Low-maintenance roses. Does it get better than that? I certainly don't think so.)

Try these plants along pathways, hillsides or at the front of a border. They are Hardy in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9.

Are you already envisioning these beauties in your landscape beds? I know I am.
