Celebration of Roses, January 27: The Generous Gardener (AUSdrawn)
Link to HMF: The Generous Gardener (AUSdrawn)
Acquired From: David Austin Roses
Own Root? Both
Would I Grow Again? Yes
Notes: Highly perfumed flowers, glossy, disease-resistant foliage. Blooms in flushes from spring to frost and can be trained to a lovely shape as a climbing rose against a wall. Hardy to zone 5b. Produces large hips which persist well into winter. This is a rose I most often recommend to gardeners looking for a fragrant, pink climbing rose.
