Notes

'Blushing Drift' rose (Rosa 'Blushing Drift') is a shrub for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. Its pink blend flowers are fragrant and draw butterflies and bees. The glossy, dark green leaves form a dense, spreading mound. Alain A. Meilland bred it in 2022.

Pairs well with Ruby Spice sweet pepperbush, Gladiator ornamental onion, and Jackmanii clematis.
