White groundcover roses.

Yes, groundcover roses are a thing – and for those of us looking to fill a garden border with fragrance, there’s one particular variety that will reward you with a scented carpet of perennial blooms and manage weeds at the same time.

Groundcover roses do exactly what they say on the tin: they’re adept at covering bare patches of ground, keeping weeds at bay and making them ideal filler plants for sparse garden borders.
