Jam-packed with charm, this features cheery yellow blooms that emerge from pinky-gold baby buds. Best of all, it blooms continuously from spring through fall. You'll also love the fruity fragrance, and so will all your local pollinators!

Backed by glossy green foliage, this compact cutie acts as a living mulch to dress up other plants it's paired with! Creating carpets of color smothered in buttery gold clusters of blooms! This modern little Rose offers superior disease and pest resistance! Low maintenance and easy care, this Rose won't take much of your time or worry!

Planting and Application:

This is a true groundcover shrub that readily spreads to fill any bare spots. Cover difficult-to-mow hillsides and embankments with cheery color! This medium-sized ground cover Rose converts in the gaps with tidy greenery and bright blooms.

Perfect as edging and underplanting, tidying up along garden beds, creating a polished look. Use as a bright, low hedge for definition and eases the transition between lawn and garden. Add a golden highlight to planters, the tops of retaining walls, or in container gardens. Pair with other Happy Trails™ Roses as spillers and fillers in your container gardens and mix them together in the garden border for a vivid array of colors!

This Rose works well when planted to fill dangerous to mow slopes. Stagger the plantings about 30" apart and allow them to fill in the bare ground. Fantastic facer plants for dressing up the bare legs of larger trees and shrubs along your foundation and throughout mixed-shrub plantings!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

For the most blooms, this Rose prefers full sun, favoring the morning sun to dry the leaves of dew. Choose a site with good air circulation throughout USDA growing zones 4 through 10, these Groundcover Roses are very cold and heat tolerant! Plant in well-drained humusy-enriched soil with plenty of organic matter. All plants do best with a topdressing of mulch to insulate the roots from both heat and cold. Add Nature Hills Root Booster while planting for a life-long symbiotic relationship with the tiny feeder roots. Roses do best with moderate, yet consistent moisture. Fertilize with Rose geared fertilizer 2-3 times a year for the best health.

Rose Bush FAQs

Where Is The Best Place To Plant Rose Bushes?

Roses need a protected location and prefer full sun and favor the drying power of the morning sun and flower best in at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Choose a location in good, enriched soil that drains well and has good air circulation.

What Is The Best Month to Plant Roses?

You can plant Roses any time if you are able to provide enough consistent moisture and attention. While there is not a specific month that is best, generally because it changes with temperatures, climate and growing zone. However, the easiest times of the year to get Rose bushes established in your landscape are in spring after the last frost date, and in fall about 4-6 weeks before the first frost.

Do Roses Come Back Every Year?

Rose bushes are deciduous woody perennial shrubs and will return bigger and better each year.
