Front of House
Brighten up the front of your house with a magnificent climbing rose. A climbing rose can transform any home with its colourful blooms. A climber grown on the wall of your house will often be the earliest garden rose to flower due to the additional warmth the wall provides. Another benefit of growing a rose on the wall of your house, or on a wall or fence near to your house, is that the beauty and fragrance of the rose’s blooms can be enjoyed at close quarters
Featured rose Gertrude Jekyll® (Ausbord)
Trained purposefully up the front of a house, big blooms can quickly look like they have been there for years and will most certainly be admired by passers-by. Requiring very little ground space, climbing roses are ideal for growing in smaller spots where the only real space available is vertical.
GARDENER'S TIP
Soil next to the front of a house can be poor so be sure to use plenty of soil improver.
The façade of a house should not be forgotten as it provides a unique opportunity to change the style of your home, simply by adding flowers. A wispy rambler will convert a simple house front into the country style property of your dreams, no matter your location.
