More information
For those who prefer red roses, need a bright accent, or want to experiment, plant a dense group of three plants of the Colossal Meidiland variety; the grouping forms a mound bearing dense inflorescences of large double flowers. Shoots reach up to 1.5 metres, droop, and mutually intertwine, creating a voluminous effect in the landscape. Such a planting requires space for viewing. This variety displays vigour of growth and notable foliage. It can be used in mixed plantings with straight-growing shrubs.
