For a week in my garden this May the climbing Cecile Brunners were head-high and covered with neat little pink roses so heavily that had Monet seen them he might have been tempted to paint them in his "Haystack" series of paintings. At a little more than half the size was my Louise Clemens. Its flowers were larger and rendered in a garden-friendly soft orange and it was just as well covered with them, so it was just as impactful. The precise set of colors in the flowers make this a wonderful "bridge" plant between vibrant hot colors like vermilion/fire engine red and softer ones like pastels, pinks, purples, mauves. It's nice to have a color that isn't white that works for the transition. The shrubby habit of the rose is marvelous and it seems unaffected by late frost, mildew or blackspot in this location.

I love her just a baby planted 2024
She is lovely

My Louise C is only a year old. I am in zone 5.

I bought this gorgeous Rose through Costco. Arrived with 2 stems 2 months, but has flourished and is absolutely gorgeous. I will be purchasing more roses from Heirloom.
