Why Red Drift ® Roses?
The Red Drift® Rose has earned the reputation as a true plant-and-forget rose that rewards you unmatched color. From novices to masters, gardeners love Red Drift® Roses because they get tons of double-blooms with virtually no upkeep.
The Red Drift ® is a space-saver that's extremely pest and disease-resistant. Years of hybridizing and development have made these some of the easiest groundcover roses to grow.
In fact, the Red Drift® is resistant to the most common plagues and pests that affect other varieties, including mildew, black spot, rust, and dreaded Japanese beetles.

It's also well-suited to perennial beds or cascading growth along garden walls, But no matter where you plant, Red Drift® sports up to 15 double-blooms per stem!

Planting & Care
1. Planting: Find a spot with well-drained soil and full sun (6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day).
Plant your rose in a hole twice as wide but just as deep as the root ball. Water immediately to establish roots. Add a 3-inch layer of mulch to prevent weeds.
If you're planting in a container, select a pot that's about twice the size of your plant's shipped container, and use organic soil. Place your rose, water to settle its roots, and find a sunny spot on your porch or patio to place your container.
2. Watering: Water weekly, or check the surrounding soil. When the soil is dry about 3 inches down, it's time to water your rose.
If your rose is container-planted, water until you see it flowing from the drainage holes at the bottom.
3. Fertilizing: Feed with a liquid rose fertilizer, once in the spring and once in the summer. Follow the instructions on the package.
4. Pruning: Other than for shaping purposes, no pruning is required.

United StatesRed Drift Roses
Great! I bought 4 drift roses. Two pink and 2 red. Both are doing extremely well and looking beautiful. All are blooming.
United StatesBeautiful small bush
Arrived in great condition and was blooming after a week. It’s the perfect size for the front of beds or to put in a planter.
United StatesJust recieved
I was very pleased and surprised by the size and condition of these roses. I ordered 3 red and 3 coral. I didn't know what to expect but they are in great shape, green and healthy even after traveling. There are some small buds on them and the plants are close to a foot tall. I have not planted them yet but feel good knowing they are in such good shape to start. I would not normally order plants online but would not hesitate to again!
United StatesSmaller flowers than expected
The plant arrived in great shape — healthy and with buds already. I was just surprised at how small the flower blossoms are, otherwise the plant seems to be doing well.
United StatesBeautiful
These roses are absolutely beautiful. They continue to bloom with multiple roses non stop. Arrived packed for protection. Shipping was very fast. I am a repeat customer ordering over 10 times and will only order from FGT because of the high quality of plants I received. I highly recommend this company and these beautiful roses.
