ENGLISH ROSES<br />

AS CLIMBERS<br />

Some English <strong>Roses</strong> make the most<br />

excellent climbers and indeed we<br />

believe they are, as a group, the best of<br />

all climbing roses. They are vigorous,<br />

without being too tall, and so are easy<br />

to manage. They also have a<br />

remarkable ability to flower all the<br />

way down to the base of the plant.<br />

They are very generous with the<br />

number of stems they produce from<br />

the base and so there is plenty to<br />

work with when fanning them out on<br />

a wall, trellis or fence. They are also<br />

ideal for obelisks, arches or pillars.<br />

Repeat-flowering. Perfectly formed,<br />

soft peachy pink rosettes with a<br />

strong, delicious, fruity Tea Rose<br />

fragrance. Plentiful glossy foliage, with<br />

few thorns. A superb climber that is<br />

extremely tough, healthy and reliable.<br />
