Climbing Roses
Climbing roses are distinct from most ramblers, in that they tend to have larger blooms, the ability to repeat flower and stouter growth. Their use in the garden for adding height is unsurpassed, coming in a variety of colours and sizes. The stronger growing varieties are often seen covering walls, fences, arches and pergolas, whilst shorter varieties can be trained around poles and tripods to form ‘pillars’. Our collection includes many of the older Noisette, Tea, Hybrid Tea, Boursaults and Bourbons and also a good range of more modern varieties, with many that are highly fragrant which is always a bonus.
The vibrant pink Zepherine Drouhin is a recurrent favourite of the shorter varieties, often seen as a scented focal point. Medium climbers can be very versatile, the prime example, Etoile de Hollande, looks just as good on a wall as it does draped over an arch. Whilst the tall variety Cecile Brunner Climber is often seen creating an impact trained around door entrances.
All climbers require support and it is essential they are well tied to their structures. They are best trained horizontally to prevent any legginess, encourage a spreading habit and better blooming.
Pruning Guide: Once established, prune in Feb/ March by reducing side shoots to two or three buds of the main stem. Tie-in any new long growths in a horizontal fashion during September.
