Apricot Drift® Rose (Rosa ‘Meimirrote’) is a compact groundcover rose that delivers a continuous show of soft apricot-colored blooms against dark green foliage. This rose stays low and mounded, reaching about 1.5 feet tall, making it ideal for the front of beds, walkways, containers, or cascading over walls. Like all Drift® roses, it’s bred for strong disease resistance, long blooming seasons, and easy care. Apricot Drift® brings warmth and charm to any landscape without requiring the high maintenance of traditional roses.
