Sally Holmes Climbing Rose
Bush/ climber ‘Sally Holmes’
Sally Holmes Climbing Rose is a magnificent and robust shrub that can be trained as a climber, celebrated for its incredible clusters of single blooms. Each large cluster can hold up to 50-60 flowers, starting as soft apricot buds and opening to large, single, creamy white blossoms with golden stamens. It is exceptionally disease-resistant, heat-tolerant, and blooms in massive, continuous flushes from spring to fall. Its "bedhead" of flowers creates a wonderfully informal, romantic effect on fences, walls, or as a large, free-standing specimen.
