More about Ground Cover roses:
Ground Cover Roses basically describes roses of stature that are wider than they are tall. They are sometimes called Procumbent Roses. Some are truly ground hugging whereas others are bushier. Newer varieties are more remontant. Most are excellent landscaping roses but few prove useful for weed suppression.
With an Award of Garden Merit from the RHS, Scented Carpet makes a particularly pretty addition to a garden border. A truly prostrate grower, with a profusion of single lilac pink blooms with paler centers and showy yellow stamens against a backdrop of healthy, glossy foliage. Highly fragrant, this rose is also perfect for pollinators.
Pruning Guide: Can be left unpruned until established. In subsequent years, prune to suit when dormant in the winter months. Large scale plantings can be tackled with a hedge trimmer.
