This deciduous shrub boasts a dense, upright habit, typically reaching a height of 3-4 feet with a similar spread. Known for its disease-resistant foliage, it thrives in USDA Hardiness Zones 4-9, preferring temperatures between -30°F and 90°F. Its vibrant, semi-double red flowers bloom repeatedly throughout the growing season, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. While it does not exhibit significant fall color, it may produce small, ornamental rose hips. Best grown in well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil, it tolerates partial shade but performs best in full sun. This variety is moderately deer-resistant and a resilient choice for mixed borders, containers, or as a low hedge. Its striking blooms and easy care make it a standout feature in any garden.
