Landscaping Attributes

Sweet Drift® Rose is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its average texture blends into the landscape, but can be balanced by one or two finer or coarser trees or shrubs for an effective composition.

This shrub will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. It is a good choice for attracting bees to your yard. It has no significant negative characteristics.

Sweet Drift® Rose is recommended for the following landscape applications;

Mass Planting, Hedges/Screening, General Garden Use

Ornamental Features

Sweet Drift® Rose features showy clusters of fragrant pink flowers with gold eyes at the ends of the branches from late spring to mid fall. The flowers are excellent for cutting. It has grayish green deciduous foliage. The glossy oval compound leaves do not develop any appreciable fall color.

Planting & Growing Tips

Sweet Drift® Rose will grow to be about 24 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 3 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front. It grows at a fast rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 30 years.

This shrub should only be grown in full sunlight. It does best in average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. This particular variety is an interspecific hybrid.
