‘Campfire’ Shrub Rose

‘Campfire’ Shrub Rose (Rosa ‘Campfire’). The ‘Campfire’ shrub rose is a Canadian shrub rose from the 49th Parallel series, known for its spectacular blooms with evolving colors and its great hardiness. It forms a compact shrub with a dense, rounded habit, producing an abundance of semi-double flowers whose shades vary from warm yellow to coral pink with orange-red highlights, creating a flamboyant effect reminiscent of a campfire. Its glossy dark green foliage shows excellent disease resistance and highlights the changing hues of the flowers from early summer until the first frosts.

To plant the ‘Campfire’ shrub rose, choose a suitable exposure: full sun. The recommended soil is: rich, well-drained soil. Water at the base and allow air to circulate between the branches. Remove dead parts with a clean tool, then prune according to the rose group. Winter protection depends on its hardiness and the possible presence of a graft union. Water the root ball before planting and ensure water can drain after planting. During establishment, check the moisture by hand before watering again.

Allow a width of 90 cm (35 in) to organize this plant’s space in the garden. The indicated height of 90 cm (35 in) helps choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Keep access to the base for weeding, checking moisture, and removing damaged parts. Combine this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Potted roots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
