Overview

The original Red Simplicity Hedge Rose, introduced in 1985 by renowned Jackson & Perkins hybridizer William Warriner ('JACsimpl'), set a high standard with its rich red blooms, abundant bud count, and exceptional resistance to mildew and rust. Building on that legacy, Double Red Simplicity Hedge Rose enhances those qualities with fully double, plush crimson blooms that emerge in clusters throughout the season. These vibrant flowers contrast beautifully against glossy green foliage and release a mild, pleasant fragrance, a perfect addition to your landscape.

This Jackson & Perkins exclusive is one of the most low-maintenance roses ever grown, thriving with minimal care while delivering continuous color and reliable performance. Ideal for lining borders, framing patios, or creating a living hedge, Double Red Simplicity Hedge Rose excels in humid and rainy climates where other roses might struggle. Hardy to -10°F, it withstands cold winters but benefits from freeze protection in early spring to safeguard emerging buds.
