Meidiland Fire Rose is a ground-hugging deciduous shrub used as a groundcover with a long bloom season and dark green glossy foliage. The dense blooms of lightly fragrant, bright red double flowers continue from late spring until the first frost. Best grown in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. The Meidiland series has improved disease resistance and its ground-hugging habit is good for erosion control and smothering weeds.
