The Rose Little Red Hedge is an extraordinary rose with flower spikes that resemble tall red delphiniums. From small, pointed carmine-red buds held on rigid side stems, it opens into firm, double blooms that retain their shape and colour beautifully. Each stem can carry dozens of blossoms—sometimes up to 50—creating striking vertical towers of vivid red. This floribunda’s dense growth habit makes it ideal for hedging, borders, or mass plantings, while its long, flower-laden stems are excellent for dramatic arrangements.
Vigorous, hardy, and reliable, Little Red Hedge thrives in full sun and well-draining, compost-enriched soil. Feed with a balanced rose fertiliser in early spring and after each flush to encourage repeat flowering, and apply a potassium booster mid-season for lasting colour. Regular deep watering, mulching, and light winter pruning will keep the plant strong and blooming profusely. A unique addition to Cape Town gardens, this rose combines density, height, and a dazzling floral display like no other.
