Magnificent climber

This rose took a year to get its feet in the ground, but oh my now in its 3rd year, it flowers profusely. Big beautiful pink roses. The first few roses of the year are always naff, cut them off, but then it really dazzles. The website says 4ft x 4ft, but mine is more like 6ft x 6ft and happily growing some long horizontals across the top of the fence with sooooo many flowers.

Advice
What is a bare root rose?

A bare root rose is a rose plant that is sold with its roots exposed rather than planted in soil in a pot. These are typically available during the rose's dormancy period (late autumn to early spring) and are often chosen for planting in gardens.

Sir Paul Smith (Climbing Rose)

Introduction

The Sir Paul Smith climbing rose, a magnificent creation from Peter Beales Roses in 2006, pays homage to the illustrious fashion designer Sir Paul Smith, at the request of Lady Smith. Its captivating beauty brings sophistication to any garden.

Characteristics

  • Growth Habit: A vigorous and dense climber, reaching impressive heights of up to 3 meters (10 feet) and spreading approximately 1.5 meters (5 feet) wide.
  • Foliage: Large, semi-glossy, mid-green leaves composed of pinnate leaflets, with new growth beautifully tinged with purple.
  • Flowers: Produces large, almost fully double blooms in clusters, showcasing a rich deep pink to carmine-pink hue and notable fragrance.
  • Flowering: Known for its continuous flowering; if left deadheaded, it yields sizeable, rich orange-red hips that persist through the winter.
  • Thorns: The stems feature thorns, a characteristic trait of climbing roses.

Cultivation

  • Soil Tolerance: Adaptable to poorer soils, making the Sir Paul Smith rose a versatile choice for diverse garden conditions.
  • Care: For best results, plant in a location with robust support; alternatively, it can also thrive as a shrub with sufficient backing.
  • Planting: When planting, ensure the hole allows the roots to spread comfortably and is deep enough to cover the base of the stems. Incorporate quality compost, such as John Innes No 3, for optimal growth.

Additional Notes

The Sir Paul Smith rose is a distinguished member of the Modern Classic Roses collection and is exclusive to Peter Beales Roses in the UK. Its continuous blooms and heavenly fragrance make it a spectacular feature in any garden.
