Climbing Roses Are Easy To Grow
from: Kyle BesserIf you've never grown a climbing rose bush, you are missing a gardening treasure. Climbing roses are one of the loveliest things about gardening. Climbing roses are a great way to add color and fragrance almost anywhere.
Any type of rose is a joy for those who love rose gardening, but climbing roses provide a different effect than traditional rose bushes. Because they grow up instead of out, you can plant them near any horizontal surface. Climbing roses can solve many landscape issues in gardening, such as to cover an ugly fence or other structure.
Climbing roses are easy to grow. As long as they have plenty of sun, good soil and a sturdy trellis or fence for climbing, they are one of the easiest plants in gardening. Climbing roses grow quickly, too, so you can cover that ugly fence very quickly.
You will need to prune climbing roses occasionally to keep them properly trained on the structure to which they are attached and to ensure that they look neat and tidy. Many will bloom for several weeks. You won't be able to cut these roses for a bouquet indoors, but you will love the fragrance they bring to your garden.
Climbing roses come in a wide variety of sizes and colors. You can find climbers that grow only 6 feet tall, such as the Jeannie Lajoie, or you can choose a mammoth Montecito, which will reach 40 feet tall if there's a structure that allows them to grow that high. Many people plant the Montecito at the foot of a tree and watch it grow!
As for colors, you can find a climbing rose in any color you want. The most popular is probably the yellow variety called Golden Showers. This climber is so popular because it is grows quickly, is disease resistant and has a lovely fragrance. Another popular choice is the dark pink Stairway to Heaven Rose. This rose also grows quickly and blooms early and much longer than most climbing roses.
Another great rose choice for Southern gardening are the climbing roses of the Cherokee variety. They are native to Georgia but will thrive in any southeast climate. This is also a very fast growing rose. It often will not bloom the first year you plant it, but when it does begin blooming, it is simply spectacular. The pink or white blooms are much larger than those on most climbing roses so it puts on quite a show.
As you can see, climbing roses fit in many landscape schemes. They provide a romance and elegance that few plants can match without a lot of work.
