Before planting
- Install a strong support before planting; mature stems can reach several metres and become heavy.
- Leave working space for tying and pruning, and keep thorny stems away from narrow paths.
Why choose it
- Produces pale blush-pink flowers repeatedly through a long season.
- Covers pergolas, arches and sunny walls with a soft, informal display.
Care
- Tie new shoots to the support and spread them out to build an even framework.
- Keep the root zone evenly moist, then mulch to reduce drying.
- Prune and train it as a climbing rose, removing damaged or poorly placed growth.
