'landscape' (RED) climber that blooms all season??
Comments (14)I don't have any personal experiences with any red climbers besides Blaze Improved. Some people have had Blaze grow great for them, however in your scenario, I would probably also go for a large climbing/rambling rose. Another rose that I will throw out there is a Paul's Scarlet Climber, but I know very little in terms of it's blooming period, disease resistance, etc. Red Cascade would also be a very vigorous and nice choice as well though since it tends to blooms fairly nonstop and has wichurana climbers in it's lineage. Sorry for the lack of personal experience. I was also looking for a large flowered, large red climber last year and it was difficult to find for me. http://www.helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=2.2303&tab=1 http://www.helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=2.4696...See MoreClimber for half sun site - seeking opinions
Comments (3)I have just now come to realize that the rose I bought as Annie Laurie McDowell at a plant sale somewhere -- I forget where -- is probably actually Renae, or perhaps some other pink polyanthus. I don't even remember if it was actually mislabeled or if I made the leap in my own mind, since the original label is long gone. My evidence? The roses I have been consistently picking off for the past two years are consistently semi-double, not double. So I do not have ALMcD at all....See MoreClimbers for NorthFacing wall:need help choosing before ARE sale ends!
Comments (11)Thank you, straw. I think Khalid also grows the Cl. Crimson Glory. That one is a 'for sure' purchase. I really want CS, but may put it on a fence to make dead-heading easier. I think I've eliminated Felicia and Blossomtime for now due to sun issues. I really just want them all, but it's too much $$$! : ( I'm planning an arbor, but don't know how soon I can clear out that area, so I'll just wait and maybe get those along with parade later, but shipping is a killer. mad gallica on the antique site said I couldn't grow anything on a north wall, but I'm going to try anyway. ARE says Ballerina and Belinda are good for shade and while not as fragrant as I usually like, I can plant others in the front of this very deep sloped bed. I'm more interested in their health. I also decided florentina may be too red and clash with CG. I'm aslo getting Barcelona for the front so that's another colour to deal with. I think it's easier to mix cool pinks than any reds. I'm also getting Gruss an Aachen, Bolero and Molyneaux for elsewhere....See MoreSeeking "Fence Climber" plant for hillside home
Comments (2)Maybe bougainvillea? I love them, I've never noticed a strong scent. They love LOTS of sun. I had a single plant that thrived in the hot desert of El Paso. Mine was in a pot but in Florida I remember seeing them climb up trellises and on fences. They do have beautiful bright color while in bloom but are still attractive when it's just the leaves....See Morefarleymanagement
