Ramblin' Red® - The Best Climbing Rose for Zones 3 and 4.
Breath-taking blooms and unbeatable hardiness. St. Paul, Minn.
(Spring 2007) - The full, rich red blooms produced by Ramblin' Red®
Rose are enough to capture the heart of any gardener. But if you
live in the North, there is no better choice for a climbing
rose.Experts call Ramblin' Red the best climbing rose for zones 3
and 4. William J. Radler, creator of Knock Out® rose, developed
Ramblin' Red in Wisconsin. Radler was able to match or surpass the
hardiness of Ramblin' Red's parent Henry Kelsey, while at the same
time providing better disease resistance. This climber is so hardy,
no special winter protection is needed, even in Zone 3. Brought to
market exclusively by Bailey Nurseries in 2002, this rose is now
more popular than ever due to its gorgeous blooms, vigorous growth,
unbeatable hardiness and disease resistance.Ramblin' Red's beautiful
flowers are reminiscent of an English garden rose and feature a
light, sweet fragrance. From the first flush of full blooms in
spring, to the enduring color in fall, this rose just keeps
producing. Deadheading spent blooms encourages Ramblin' Red to
rebloom even more.
This climber's new foliage displays a touch of red before
maturing to a glossy, dark green. The canes are strong, pliable and
easy to train. The plant can reach heights of up to ten feet.
Look for Ramblin' Red at better garden centers across the country
in spring of 2007.
