Lady Bank Roses - thorns

Jay Lo
3 years ago

Hi everyone, first post here ever! I just bought 5 lady banks white climbing roses. They were sold to me on a 3x3 foot trellis, all the same size, but 4 of them have darker and more woody mature looking canes and 1 of them is more delicate looking with green canes and thorns on it, the other 4 are thornless. I'm just wondering do the less mature roses have thorns or should I worry I have a different rose in the bunch? Whatever the more delicate thorny rose is, it is a climber for sure and it definately looks like a younger rose. I can tell the nursery has been pruning these back to the size of the trellis over time to manage them. They are not flowering. I am worried it is not the same as the other roses. I have 5 of them climbing up a trellis and then they will go over an arch. They are growing extremely fast. I can take some photos if it helps, just wondering if younger ones have thorns or if thorns appear on some of them.
