Flower Carpet Scarlet Rose

Flower Carpet Scarlet Rose (Rosa x 'NOA83100B')

Flower Carpet Scarlet Rose is a low, spreading landscape rose that fills space quickly and keeps it colorful for months. The plant is covered in bright scarlet red blooms that arrive in steady waves from spring through fall, giving you reliable impact without a high-maintenance routine. Its dense, groundcover habit helps beds look finished by covering open soil and softening hard edges. If you want bold red color with a tidy, easy shape, this rose fits the role.

Distinctive Features

This groundcover-style rose forms a dense, mounded plant with a broad spread, creating a carpet effect that looks clean in both formal and casual designs. It produces a profusion of brilliant scarlet red flowers over a long season, with new blooms continually replacing older ones for a consistently bright display. The foliage is glossy dark green, providing strong contrast and a polished backdrop for the flowers. Mature size is typically about 2 to 3 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide.

Growing Conditions

• Sun: Full sun is best for heavy flowering, with 6 or more hours of direct light each day.
• Soil: Plant in fertile, well-drained soil amended with organic matter for best performance.
• Water: Water deeply during establishment, then water when the top few inches of soil are dry while avoiding waterlogged conditions.
• USDA Zones: Zones 4 to 10.
• Spacing: Space plants to allow airflow and let the spreading habit knit together into broad coverage.

Ideal Uses

• Focal Point: Use as a focal point in a low, sunny bed where a wide ribbon of scarlet bloom can define the edge of the space.
• Groundcover Masses: Plant in groups to create a continuous carpet of red that reads well from a distance.
• Slopes and Banks: Spreading growth is well-suited to hillsides where you want coverage and long-season color.
• Front Borders: Keeps the front edge of beds neat with a low profile that does not block other plantings.
• Containers: Works well in large pots where the dense habit and steady bloom stay presentable with simple care.

Low Maintenance Care

• Pruning: Cut back in late winter to early spring to refresh growth and maintain a dense, uniform mound.
• Deadheading: Deadheading is optional, but light cleanup can improve tidiness and keep bloom cycles moving.
• Watering: Water at the base to keep foliage drier and support healthier growth through humid weather.
• Feeding: Fertilize in spring and again after the first bloom flush to support continuous flowering.
• Mulching: Mulch to conserve moisture, moderate soil temperature, and reduce weeds around the root zone.
