Red Drift® Rose (Rosa ‘Meigalpio’) is a tough, spreading shrub rose known for its vivid red double blooms and compact size. Growing only 1 to 1.5 feet tall, it creates a dense mat of color that's perfect for the front of borders, cascading over walls, or filling in small garden spaces. This rose is part of the Drift® series, bred for disease resistance, long bloom time, and minimal upkeep. With glossy green foliage and continuous blooming, Red Drift® brings vibrant color and classic rose charm without the fuss.
