Rosa ‘Rosy Cushion’ grows to a height of approximately 1m (3ft).  Covering an area of around 1.5m (5ft), depending of course, on the plant’s soil and growing conditions.  Plant Rosa ‘Rosy Cushion’ in any moist, but well-drained soil, in a position where your plant can enjoy basking in the warmth of the sunshine.
