Rosa gc. SCARLET MEIDILAND® (red)

This deciduous shrub rose features a low, spreading habit, making it an excellent groundcover option. Hardy in USDA zones 4-9, it thrives in temperatures ranging from -30°F to 20°F and is well-suited to full sun. It produces vibrant red flowers throughout the growing season, adding a bold splash of color to any garden. Its glossy foliage remains a rich green through the season, transitioning to a subtle golden hue in fall. While it does not produce significant fruit, its low-maintenance nature and moderate deer resistance make it a favorite among gardeners. Ideal in well-drained, slightly acidic or neutral soils, this plant reaches a mature height of approximately 1-2 feet and spreads 3-4 feet, forming a beautiful, dense, and mounding shape.
