Rosa gc. 'Creeping Red' (red)

This low-growing, spreading shrub rose exhibits a creeping habit, making it an excellent ground cover. Hardy in USDA Zones 4-9, it thrives in moderate temperatures with well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soils. Its stunning deep red flowers bloom generously throughout the season, enhancing landscapes with vibrant color, while its foliage adds interest with deep green hues. Though it does not provide prominent fall color, its disease resistance and moderate deer resistance make it a valuable addition to gardens. Mature height typically reaches 18-24 inches, with a spreading habit of up to 3-4 feet. Ideal for mass plantings, borders, and slopes, it creates a lush carpet effect when in full bloom.
