Climbers, Ramblers, Shrub and Spire roses continue…

crimson spire

Huge, crimson-red, shapely flowers are formed on long stems at different heights on this 2,5 m high growing rose. Blooms can be picked without exhausting the rose, since its astounding vigour ensures that

it simply carries on growing and flowering.

double delight

A climbing mutation of the famous Bush rose, with similar qualities: highly perfumed blooms of a basic white colour with a red edging flower in profusion the full length of the long climbing canes.

Great north

The ‘Great North’ conjures up an image of high, snow-covered mountains — and this rose presents just such a show. Buds are pointed and well shaped, opening into fragrant, double white blooms. A mature shrub will reach 3 m and can be covered with over a hundred white, cut-flower blooms. Since this plant builds itself up with short, flowering branches rather than long, nonflowering canes, it is a neat Spire with wide use in free-form landscaping, especially along fences or as tall backgrounds.

iceberg

Semi-double blooms appear in clusters of white, with yellow stamens. Very vigorous growth. Suitable for planting as a loose hedge, a large specimen shrub or trained over a pergola. Flowers profusely and continuously once the plant has matured, i.e. from the second season.

golden showers

Medium-sized, shapely buds and semi-double blooms are produced repeatedly in large, loose clusters. The colour is a golden yellow that fades to cream as the blooms age. An exceedingly vigorous and healthy rose that can grow to a height of 5 m if supported. Foliage is glossy and profuse. This climber can be groomed and kept to size in the growing season

handel

Shapely, medium-sized buds of cream, edged with rose-pink. Willowy, neat growth and glossy, healthy foliage. Flowers repeatedly and can be trimmed in the season

iskra

Small, shapely buds open into semi-double, ‘curly’ blooms of bright crimson-red. ‘Iskra’ has a bushy but upright growth habit, and flowers profusely and repeatedly. A real showpiece when planted on its own

kordes brilliant

The dazzling brilliance of orange-red, double blooms on a hibiscus-type shrub is quite unique in roses. In just a few months, a maiden plant of ‘Kordes Brilliant’ builds itself up to 2 m high. Once the shrub has reached this stately shape, it is constantly garlanded with fiery blooms and glossy green, very healthy foliage. Planted as a focal point, a flowering fence or as a screen, this rose performs continuously without any undue care or attention

joseph’s coat

A highly prized shrub or climber rose. Medium-sized, shapely yellow buds open and change into orange-red and pink. The vigorous plant keeps on flowering as it grows into a willowy shrub or a wall-covering climber.

mermaid

This rose produces large, single blooms of pale yellow. Extremely rampant growth that can cover a pergola completely. Unchecked, it develops thick, woody centre branches. Glossy, healthy foliage. Flowers profusely and repeatedly

peace

Large, shapely blooms of creamy yellow with pink on the petal margins. Vigorous growth with very long canes, decorated with the typical glossy,green ‘Peace’ foliage.

rosa banksiae lutea

The famous yellow ‘Banksiae” rose. Except for the yellow colour, it grows and performs much the same as its white counterpart.

rosa banksiae alba plena

Tight clusters of small, full, double, white blooms. Rampant, healthy growth; unchecked, it will grow into a very large specimen, covering complete fences and growing into trees. Needs only light pruning,or none at all, to retain flowering buds. The long canes are thornless. Flowers only once in spring, with occasional clusters in late autumn. A specimen growing in Tombstone, Arizona, is regarded as the world’s largest rose: the main stem has grown, since 1885, to a thickness of 30 cm, and the rambling canes cover a pergola of 600 square meters.

rose celeste

Translated from French, ‘Rose Celeste’ means ‘Heavenly Rose‘. It boasts blooms of a shape and size expected only from a good Hybrid Tea rose. The colour is a blend of porcelain pink with a deeper pink on the reverse of the petals. However, whereas the climbing form of the Hybrid Tea rose flowers only once in spring, this rose produces fragrant blooms on the tip of every shoot throughout the season. Vigorous and extremely hardy,

‘Rose Celeste’ grows quickly to cover a wall, fence or pergola. It can also be planted without support, when it will shape itself into a naturally upright pillar. The more frequently blooms are picked, the more encouragement to flower

salmon spire

The plant grows upright, producing long, flowering stems reaching to the sky, and eventually towering to a height of 2,5 m. Long, exquisite buds open as exhibition-shaped blooms of a lovely, clean salmon- pink, produced continuously and at different heights on the stately plant. They make excellent cut flowers. The strong fragrance is a pure bonus. When planted 1,5 m apart, they form a living hedge, providing not only a never-ending supply of cut flowers, but offering additional security. They are also useful as a freestanding background to rose beds or as individual specimens

tullamore

Smallish, shapely blooms of salmon-pink with a golden base. Neat, vigorous, upright growth. A charming specimen.

White spire

Pointed buds appear in small clusters at the ends of long canes as well as on numerous short side stems. The colour is white and the. fragrance inspiring. The plant grows upright and tall, ideal for background plantings or neat hedging.

sutter’s gold

Long, pointed buds open to blends of yellow, orange and pink. Extremely vigorous growth with many long canes and shiny, dark leaves; unchecked, it grows into an enormous specimen that flowers profusely in spring and, to a lesser extent, throughout the rest of the season
