The 'Winnipeg Parks' Hardy Rose is a deciduous shrub with a compact, bushy habit, known for its deep red flowers and great hardiness. Developed from Canadian breeding programs, it offers abundant repeat flowering from early summer until the first frosts. Its velvety red double flowers elegantly contrast with its glossy, dense, dark green foliage, which is disease-resistant. Suitable for beds, borders, and low hedges, the 'Winnipeg Parks' hardy rose prefers full sun exposure and well-drained soil. Easy to maintain and very reliable in northern climates, it generally requires no winter protection and is an excellent choice for bringing sustained color and lasting structure to the garden.
