The Sweet Drift Rose has a compact, mounding habit, reaching a height of 18 inches and a width of 30 inches at maturity. It produces clusters of small, double flowers in a soft pink color. The flowers have a light, sweet fragrance.
The Sweet Drift Rose blooms continuously from spring to fall. It is a relatively low-maintenance rose, but it does require some regular watering and fertilizing. It is also important to deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming.

Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.
We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.
