Flower Carpet® RED planted out at Ladera Ranch in CA. Used as the feature plant of this estate because of its continual flowering habit, over 100,000 have been used in these plantings.
It’s no secret - great landscapes are based on great plants, and all our plants are selected to provide great outcomes.
That’s because they’ve been selected to be easy care, easy on the environment (minimum to no spraying required), but most importantly, to be beautiful. We search worldwide to find plants with the most glorious long-lasting color, fabulous texture and form and year-round appeal. In short, gorgeous plants that perform.
And we don't make claims without supporting evidence, especially since in today's world, we're all looking for plants that provide long-term color with less water. Prior to introducing a plant onto the market, there've been three and five years worth of trials to ensure that the plant performs as well as expected. And we carry out this testing in sites around the world - not only in our large trial gardens on the outskirts of Melbourne Australia, but in trial sites in the United States, Holland, Germany, France, Canada, South Africa, Japan and New Zealand.
So have a look at what other landscape designers and contractors have to say about Flower Carpet® ground cover roses
They will take neglect and keep on blooming. They are not fussy. I like to remove the spent flower head branches and do water them when everything else gets water, but that's it. The Japanese beetles munch on them a bit but they are so vigorous, its not really a problem. They live up to the claims...Landscape blog, Zone 7
Wow what a beautiful rose!!!! The Flower Carpets are still my rose of choice for hardiness in commercial sites where they may not get planted in the best environment...Landscape professional direct comment, Zone 6, Chicago area
Coral color...For something that is not supposed to do well, it is funny how everyone walking by any of our jobs comments on how beautiful they always look....But these carpet roses or as we call them here shrub roses........Fabulous. All we have to do is keep cutting them back to keep them contained...Landscape blog, Zone 6

Flower Carpet® PINK, brilliant as a ground cover plant
I think Flower Carpet was one of the original 'environmental' roses when it first came out 15+ years ago. Because of that, I've planted them in several public park settings over the years and love that they don't require any chemicals to keep them thriving and blooming almost all summer long...Landscape professional, Zone 5, Vermont
Flower Carpet received 18.3 points out of a possible 20, the highest rating for natural disease resistance ever given. It was te ONLY rose out of 43 entered for 1990 to obtain ADR approval. All others failed to even qualify...Georgia Green Industry Association Journal
