Flower Carpet Red Velvet

This is Flower Carpet Red Velvet a ground cover rose.

It has lovely bright red flowers with a yellow centre and glossy, rich green foliage.

I have put mine in a container as I don’t have much room left in the ground so I’m hoping it will flow over the top of the container.  The flowers should last well until the frosts.

It is naturally disease resistant and likes a sunny spot but is not particular about the soil it’s planted in. Feed regularly and trim off spent blooms to encourage more flowers.

Flower Carpet Red Velvet is available to buy from Gardening Express.
