Description:
Climbers are the high risers of the rose world. Ideal for fences, walls, arbors and trellises; they can grow up and over whatever you can tie them to. Cascades of blooms and lots of growth are some of the characteristics of climbers, making them an excellent choice for any garden. Huge, fragrant red blooms dangle from vigorous canes, banked by glossy dark green foliage on this robust climber. Quickly reaching 10 to 12 feet tall and 8 feet wide, no wonder it's considered the standard red climber, by which all others are judged. If you saw these 3 to 4 inch blooms without the plant, you'd probably assume they were exhibition-quality Hybrid Teas. Packed with 30 to 35 petals and boasting a true red hue that won't fade, they are superb cut flowers. 'Don Juan' blooms in summer, achieving the best color in areas where the nights are warm. If you live in a high humidity climate, this is the climber you must have. Ships bare root packaged in dormant state.
