Commonly Asked Questions
What is the best month to plant climbing roses?
Potted climbing roses can be planted at any time of the year, provided the ground is not frozen or overly wet. The best time is between the beginning of autumn and early spring when they’re dormant, allowing the roots to establish before your rose bursts into life in the spring.
Which is the fastest-growing climbing rose?
The 'New Dawn' is an exceptionally fast, vigorous grower with light pink flowers that bloom from spring through summer. It is known for filling up spaces quickly and bringing brightness wherever it’s planted.
What’s the difference between a climbing rose and a rambling rose?
Rambling roses grow vigorously and need plenty of space, making them perfect for growing up trees or over walls. Climbing roses, on the other hand, are less vigorous and better suited to smaller gardens where space is limited.
Where is the best place to plant a climbing rose?
Climbing roses thrive in fertile soil, ideally improved with a mulch of well-rotted manure, and prefer sunny or lightly shaded spots. Some are suitable for north-facing walls, pillars, or fences, and they appreciate generous watering during summer.
Do I need a trellis for climbing roses?
Yes, supporting your climbing rose as it grows is essential. We recommend setting up straining wires or using a trellis. Place the lowest straining wire 2 feet (60 cm) from the ground, repeating every 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) up the wall or fence to the mature height of the rose.
