Climbing Rose
A short climber, it is always one of the first English Roses to start flowering, its perfect scrolled buds open to large, rosette-shaped flowers of bright glowing pink. The strong, perfectly balanced Old Rose scent is often described as being the quintessential Old Rose fragrance. Named for the famous garden designer and author. David Austin, 1986.
