- ERICA BROWNE GRIVAS

Roses used to be known for requiring so much R bek specialized care that they needed their own section of garden. But today's breeders are creating roses that blend into our lives and gardens-and Drift roses may become your new favorite.

Roses Aplenty

Drift roses arose from a cross between larger ground-cover roses and miniature roses, creating a hearty combination. There are 11 varieties in the Drift series, ranging from white and yellow to apricot, peach, coral and deep rose.
