@FrankMosher those look amazing. Now if I had them plant Carpet Roses as well as tulips in the same area, so that tulips would bloom April-June and Carpet Roses June-freezing, how should the Carpet Roses be planted in relation to the tulips?

How much space would be needed between a Carpet Rose plant and the nearest tulip bulbs, so that they would both bloom year after year?

How far apart should the Carpet Roses be planted from each other?

Do the Carpet Roses need to be deadheaded constantly, or it's enough to just cut them back every early spring?
