Rosa Nitty Gritty® Peach

Lovely peach flowers, perfect for small spaces.

A mounding, easy to care for rose with semi-double, peach colored flowers that bloom from spring through summer, and then fade to a soft pink. Ideal for urban gardens where a manageable size and showy flowers count is important. Lovely in mass plantings, on a slope for erosion control, or in coastal settings, where they are tolerant of salt air.

A low growing, disese resistant shrub rose with abundant, semi double peach flowers for most of the summer.

Landscape Use

Foundations, cutting gardens, wildlife gardens, borders, and small urban gardens

Pruning

These roses are so hardy, they should need little pruning, but if you see some dead parts with no leaves in late spring, cut back to just above the new growth. Best rule of thumb for timeng is - "When the Forsythia bloom, it's time to prune!"
