Description
One of the most popular in the Drift Series, spring through fall the Popcorn Drift Rose produces an abundance of double yellow buds that open to creamy white flowers. Both buds and flower occur simultaneously providing a wonderful two-tone effect. The flowers are borne in clusters on low trailing plants sporting deep green glossy foliage that helps showcase blossoms. Disease resistance is exceptional. We’ve found that Drift Roses have about five flower cycles yearly. The spring bloom in April and the fall bloom are the heaviest, with sporadic lighter flowering between.
The new family of Drift Roses are comparable to the family of Knock Out Roses in disease resistance and low-maintenance, however are much smaller in size. They get their small size from being a cross between full-size groundcover roses and miniature roses. From the former they kept toughness, disease resistance and winter hardiness. From the miniatures, they inherited their well-managed size and repeat-blooming nature.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Being dwarfs, Drift Roses are ideal for use as a specimen in small to medium size garden spaces, pots, planters and other patio containers of 12 inches or more in rim diameter. In larger landscape spaces, for stunning floral displays plant them in groupings or mass plantings for vibrant splashes of season-long color, or as a front facing border in home foundation plantings, landscape borders or rose gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 24 inches apart for mass plantings; 4 feet or more apart for space between plants

How Many Plants Needed To Cover A Planting Area?
Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 4a, where this Drift Rose variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Growing Requirements
Drift Roses are exceptionally easy to grow in average, well-drained soils with medium moisture in full sun to part shade. To avoid powdery mildew on leaves, all roses require morning sun to dry the morning dew from their leaves. Some afternoon shade or filtered sun is fine. We suggest 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for best flowering. Drift Roses do not require pruning, however, they do benefit from it. We cut our Drift Roses back to about 4 to 6 inches above the ground before new growth begins to emerge in late winter or very early spring. Plants will quickly flush out and start blooming with the arrival of spring temperatures. Deadheading spent flowers is not necessary however will encourage more new buds and flowers.

Very nice plants and packaging. Will order again
Healthy plants blooming were shipped. For some reason I thought the flowers would be more yellow. Maybe I was thinking of buttered popcorn lol. I went back and reread the description and it says the buds are yellow and open to white. Still would have bought them…and the buds and flowers are very pretty. Very satisfied with my purchase. I’m a plant junkie so now I have to start looking for the next plant to buy!
I just love them!
