Climbing roses are the best landscaping choice for vertical landscaping. They are used with pleasure to decorate the site by both amateurs and professionals. Lush bloom of climbing roses is long-lasting, mesmerizing.

There are two groups of climbing roses: climber (climbing climbing roses, "climber" in English translates as - to climb, climb), and ramblers (curly climbing roses, "ramble" - to crawl, curl). Rumblers have abundant flowering, but once a season and only on the shoots of previous years. Flowers are collected in inflorescences up to 20 pcs. Rambler have flexible stems.

Note! Sometimes, instead of "climber" they say "climber". We are talking about the same group of roses, however, "climber" is not quite the correct pronunciation, but among gardeners it has already taken root quite strongly.

Climber roses - what is it

Climbers are erect climbing roses with large flowers obtained by crossing climbing roses with hybrid tea and Floribunda roses. The bush is powerful, well branched. Flowers are formed on all shoots, including young ones. Shoots are thick and tough. Does not need support. The lashes grow upright, then take on a drooping shape under their own weight. Flowers are much larger than those of ramblers. The bloom is very spectacular. Climbers grow slowly.

Description and care

Climbers are vigorous plants. The bush is formed from strong shoots, reaching 5 m. Flowers are large enough. Climber roses bloom profusely and for a long time. Bloom for the first time in July, again in September. Flowers are formed on the shoots of the past and the current year. 3-10 buds are formed in inflorescences.

Choose a sunny place for landing. The soil should be loose and fertile. On clay soil, drainage 15-20 cm high must be poured on the bottom.

On a note. Planting must be mulched. For this, peat, leaf litter, sawdust are suitable.

The care is no different from other types of roses. In the first year after planting, the bush is watered often, and the next season, watering is rarely carried out, but abundantly. For an optimal humidification regime, it is recommended to organize drip irrigation.

Correct pruning

Pruning is done in early spring. Flowers are formed on the main shoots, and flowering on them lasts almost 5 years, so they are pruned after four years of cultivation. The skeleton is formed from one to four-year-old shoots on which young flowering shoots are formed. All weak growths should be removed.

Important!In central Russia, the plant needs shelter. Shoots begin to bend 3-4 weeks before the onset of cold weather. This is done gradually and carefully, in several steps, since climbers have hard whips.

Roses are fed in the second or third year of cultivation. During the season, 4-5 dressings are made. Humus, superphosphate, complex fertilizers are suitable for feeding.

Note! Climbing roses should not be overfed. This reduces winter hardiness.
