Rose Type: Climbing Rose
Fourth of July®, Climber brings dramatic color with velvety red blooms boldly striped and splashed with bright white. The approximately 4-inch flowers carry 10–15 petals and appear in generous sprays, creating an ever-changing striped display against fresh green foliage. Its vivid bicolor pattern makes each bloom feel a little different from the next.
This vigorous climber is also notably free-flowering, blooming and reblooming readily even from a young plant. Its fragrance has a distinct apple character, while excellent disease resistance and strong overall vigor make it a dependable landscape rose. Mature plants can reach about 12–15 feet tall and perform well in full sun, including coastal and warm conditions.
