Can any gardening gurus tell me what this plant is please?

[Biffatcrafts]

I live in Catalunya, so I'm not very familiar with all the plants here. Have seen this beautiful climber climbing over a local house which has gorgeous flowers and want to get one, but I have no idea what it is called. Can anybody here possibly help me identify it? I tried PlantSnap, but it gave so many possibilities I couldn't work out if any of the suggestions were rhe right one. I've posted a pic of the leaves, with buds nearby, and another one of the amazing flowers, and then a 3rd which shows it from a distance.

I've truly fallen in love with this plant and would be so grateful if someone can help me ❤️

Rosa banksia ‘Lutea’ I think.

Oh wow, you replied so quickly @Volterra thank you, I think you must be right ... now I know what to search for in my local garden centres ... thank you

My pleasure , just happened to come up as I was looking,
Don’t do what I did, I thought it got to 7 feet but it actually said 7 meters 😀

Oh wow @Volterra .. luckily I have a great, very sunny, and huge wall to grow it against, but will warn DH we might need longer ladders

I have one I got it from David Austin Roses. It is wonderful, highly scented, flowers in April and has no thorns. Here in London it is ever green.

Just a word of warning, that you might need to wait for the second year for flowers. It grows really rapidly and spends its energy in the first year establishing a root system.

This mine

Ah, thanks @florentina1, good to know! Otherwise I would be convinced I had done something wrong.

The more I look at it the more beautiful it is. By the way @florentina1, can I ask how old your rose is now? It looks really well established

Yup that’s a Banksia, I had a huge one but it had no scent at all sadly so I took it out. Very lovely for a short while in the spring.

I have had it 5 years. The first year it spread about 12 feet. Each year since it has pt on about 15 - 18. feet.. I like because it is very easy to train. It does not get tangled like most ramblers, you can bend it without it breaking. It is also disease resistant.

In year 2 I had a fair smattering of flowers, but since then every branch has been smothered. In early June I cut it back and retrain it. Because I am restricted for space I take out about a quarter. You don’t have to prune it at all if you don’t want to. You can continue to prune it right through spring early summer. It can still be trained and pruned after that but the soft branches start to harden and it is prone to snap. Even so, this does it no harm.

In February my whole garden gets a dose of Fish, Blood and Bone fertiliser. Then once in July and once in August, it gets a seaweed feed.

@florentina1 Thank you so much for all that info, it's going to be really useful, and I have especially taken note about fertiliser and will make sure it is well fed. One other question: I have a wild patch in my garden where I grow a lot of nettles for making a nettle liquid feed ... will that work or do I really need the type of fertilisers you mentioned?

Home made fertiliser is probably better than commercial ones. Be careful not to over feed. I had a lush clematis which was really vigorous with no flowers. Once I was told to stop feeding, it improved..

Feeding the garden is a minefield. Even after 50 years of gardening I still don’t know if it is really necessary. All I can say is underfeeding is better than over feeding and the more natural the better.

I agree, I also like to use all natural things if possible. I will start with just a little, see how it goes, and increase very gradually if I think it needs it. Once again thank you for your advice 🙏

A feed specifically for tomatoes is your best bet, the trace elements that plants need vary depending on whether you want lots of leaf growth (like for a lawn) or flowers and fruit. A high nitrogen feed will be appropriate for your grass but not for plants you want to flower. Tomato food has a higher ratio of potassium (the K of N-P-K). The green fertilisers of rotted nettles etc are probably higher in nitrogen than potassium.

I probably wouldn't give it to a rose in its first year but in the second year when the roots are established, it would likely help boost flowering.

Thank you @TheNoodlesIncident for that info, much appreciated and I will definitely follow your advice 👍
