Climbing roses

1 reply

Spuddybean · 31/03/2012 01:19

We are getting trellis fencing put up all around the garden (for privacy) and i would like some high yielding, low maintenance, easy, climbing roses - I am not an experienced gardener and expecting a baby - so nothing which requires any effort really, apart from a bit of pruning at certain times of the year. I need some for planting in the ground and in large tubs.

Does anyone have any suggestions of what to buy? and where to buy them?

Thanks

Have a look at [www.crocus.com]] excellent service and quality. Also David Austin- rose growers. Both sites have a menu that lets you filter type of rose you want.

Climbers you might like include New Dawn- vigorous pale pink, Albertine- a rambler that is a peachy pink.

What about some clematis to grow up in between to give a bit of variety as roses can look a bit "bare"? Viticella clematis are vigorous and there are some pretty ones.
