Rambling roses provide the fireworks of the rose world. Their flowering season maybe for only 3 weeks per year but within those weeks, they don’t stop flowering. Within the large branches of flowers, there’s always buds opening, pushing out the finished flowers and underneath in all, are the buds waiting for the others to finish, so they can have their turn to show off to the world
They are also the true climbers of the Rose world and they really live up to their name and really ramble everywhere.
To find 10 of my best isn’t easy but I hope you enjoy them
Well that’s the end of the 10 rambling roses. Of course growing them well is the key to getting the best from them and I have written a few older blogs on pruning roses which would be well worth taking a look at
There is a small isolated grove of redwoods in Santa Cruz that support a large thicket of rambling rose with pale pink bloom. What is so amazing is that the lowest limbs that support the thicket are about thirty feet up! The rose grew up along with the tree, and managed to stay up there while lower limbs were shed. It is impressive, but so high up that there is no point to it. The pink of the bloom is visible, but individual flowers do not look like much from that distance.
