If you are looking for that low maintenance rose that is free flowering, disease resistant and easy pruning then do consider the Flower Carpet series. These roses will flower for more than half the year, they have very healthy, lush, shiny green leaves that remain healthy thorughout the season and require no spraying. These easy care roses are suitable to plant at any time of the year and are quick to grow. Ideal for scrambling over walls and banks. - Otago Daily Times 12 May 2007
