Overview & Description

The Champlain Rose (Rosa ‘Champlain’) is a stunning, hardy shrub rose from the Canadian Explorer Series. It is celebrated for its velvety, dark red, semi-double blooms that provide continuous, vivid colour throughout the growing season. Each richly textured flower stands out dramatically against its backdrop of dark green, glossy, exceptionally disease-resistant foliage.

Growth & Size

This variety exhibits a bushy, compact, and upright growth habit. It forms a well-branched, dense shrub, typically reaching a mature size of about 0.9 to 1 meter (3 to 3.5 feet) in both height and width.

Additional Notes

It blooms continuously from late spring through fall. Exceptionally cold-hardy and disease-resistant, it is a low-maintenance, reliable performer for northern climates. Its prolific, repeat-blooming nature and rich red colour make it an outstanding choice for borders, mass plantings, foundation plantings, or as a dramatic, long-flowering focal point requiring minimal care in a variety of garden settings.
