Now, and habits. rougis covers both "I blush, to turn red" and "I am blush, to turn reding" — French has no separate continuous form.
A completed past action. avoir conjugates and rougi does not — ai rougi.
An ongoing or habitual past. Built on the nous-present stem, so rougissons gives you rougissais.
About to happen. aller conjugates; rougir never moves — the easier future to produce under pressure.
Will happen. Built on rougir-, which is just the infinitive, so only the endings are new.

What this table tells you about rougir
The past participle is rougi, and it takes avoir in the passé composé — so it never changes shape, whoever the subject is. No agreement to remember here.
The futur simple is built on rougir-, which is just the infinitive — the endings are the whole story, nothing new to learn for this tense.
In the present, je, tu and il/elle are one sound: rougis, rougit — indistinguishable spoken. Only nous, vous and ils/elles carry an audible ending.
The imparfait is built on the nous-present stem, so once you know rougissons you already know rougissais, rougissait and rougissaient. Futur proche keeps rougir untouched.
