Popcorn Drift Rose is reminiscent of lightly buttered popcorn filling a bowl with shades of yellow-tinted white. Its delectable flowers start out yellow in spring, then transition to a combination of creamy-white and buttery-yellow, blanketing the shrub until the first frost. The blossoms sometimes add a subtle blush of light pink hue as well. It’s a tasty treat for the eyes to be sure!
A hybrid between traditional roses and groundcover varieties, this diminutive selection is versatile, able to stand alone or even “drift” over borders or walls. Popcorn Drift Rose’s blooms posses a 15-25 petal count, are relatively tight and emit a gentle fragrance (especially mid-season). Even Popcorn Drift’s foliage is beguiling, beginning its life with a slight reddish tint, then maturing to a glossy, deep green shade that provides a perfect background for the creamy yellow blossoms.
Your Popcorn Drift Rose has an upright, yet gently spreading growth habit. Popcorn Drift is quite hardy, resistant to pests and disease, and is also generally care free. It demonstrates vigorous growth and is even self-cleaning, so you won’t have to fuss with deadheading throughout the summer months.
Whether providing an elegant patio accent, drifting over a rock garden or providing a bright accent for your perennial bed, Popcorn Drift Rose will be a delightful addition to your yard this year.
