My favorite rose color

I received this climbing rose as a gift from my kids on Mother’s Day 2024. The rose has been in a pot since then. It was planted following the Heirloom’s instructions. I am waiting until next spring to plant it on the ground on a trellis . So far the rose is two meters tall and this years had provided a few blooms.

1st year review (10A)

I live in the Valley of Los Angeles, CA (Zone 9B–10A), where some roses struggle with the summer heat—Lavender Crush, for example, crisps immediately under direct sun. After researching climbers that can handle desert-like conditions, I found The Impressionist, which is even recommended by the Desert Rose Society. After one year of growing it, here’s what my honest review:

Color, Form & Fragrance: The blooms are a vibrant orange that transitions into pink—a true showstopper. The petals are thick and sturdy, unlike many English roses, and the flowers unfurl slowly, growing larger day by day. The scent is pleasant and noticeable, with a soft musky base and fruity undertones—not overpowering, but definitely there. The foliage is a deep, dark green with a bluish hue, giving the whole plant a rich, healthy appearance even when it's not in bloom.

Sunlight: I planted it in a large CottaTerra pot, where it receives sunlight from midday to sunset. Despite the exposure, it has never burned, even during hot spells—so it definitely passed the test. I watered it every 4 days before summer arrived, but now I water twice a day during heat waves.

Fertilizer: I applied fish oil fertilizer in late winter/early spring, and the plant responded with three vigorous canes over 8 feet tall.

First-Year Blooms: The blooms weren’t generous this spring, likely because all the energy went into establishing those tall canes. But I'm hopeful for next year’s display. For the record, I got my first two blooms on May 28th. One 8-foot cane is currently forming buds. I had to stand on a chair to peek at them—and it looks like more than one is on the way.

Rodent Prevention: If rodents are a problem, try companion planting. I added catmint and geraniums, and so far, the rose has been completely untouched.

Color Combo Tip: For a real visual “wow” effect, plant it with a purple clematis like 'Jackmanii'. The contrast between the deep purple and warm orange-pink is absolutely stunning—highly recommend this pairing.
