Roses--

Are "Drift Roses" the same as "Carpet Roses"? Carpet Roses sprawl sideways--and are not too high.
Maybe a couple feet? They seem to have few requirements--sort of care free.
I have one--got it years ago when Alan Summers kept talking about these. Mine is red.
Don't know if they come in other colors...

I moved it from my shed corner bed to a corner of my front bed--and replaced it with the Knock Out Rose that now grows there.
The "Carpet Rose" does not seem to belong in a small flower bed. It sprawls too much.

Happy--You may want to see if any of these are still available. They would "hug" your hillside.
Thorny? Yes!
