Notes

'Coral Drift' rose (Rosa 'Coral 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. It spreads low and wide, so give it room. The fragrant blooms attract butterflies and bees and appear in spring, summer, and autumn. Alain A. Meilland bred it in 2006.

Pairs well with Hummelo betony, Little Lime panicle hydrangea, Gladiator ornamental onion, and Jackmanii clematis.
