Ground cover rose 'Red Ribbons'

FamilyRosaceae

Rosa ‘Red Ribbons’, commonly known as the ‘Red Ribbons’ groundcover rose, is a sprawling variety appreciated for its abundant flowering and remarkable vigor. Its spreading and slightly trailing habit forms a dense carpet ideal for slopes, borders, rock gardens, or mass plantings. It produces a profusion of bright red, semi-double flowers with golden centers, which continuously bloom from early summer until the first frosts. Slightly fragrant, they attract pollinating insects and can give way to small, decorative red rose hips at the end of the season. Its glossy dark green foliage highlights the intensity of the petals and offers good overall resistance. Rosa ‘Red Ribbons’ brings color, rapid ground cover, and easy maintenance to landscape designs.
