Flower Carpet Scarlet Rose is a care-free deciduous shrub with glossy dark green foliage and a low-mounding habit. Massive blooms of small semi-double scarlet red roses bloom continually from mid-spring until the first frost. Best grown in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Excellent disease and pest resistance, self-cleaning, and drought tolerant once established.
