Tropical Lightning™ Climbing Rose
This exciting climbing rose captures the beauty of a tropical storm at sunset in its intriguing, smoky orange blooms streaked with stripes of creamy yellow. The velvety petals are remarkably substantial, and have a distinctive coral blush and subtle hints of purple. Clusters of three to four, exhibition-quality blooms with nicely pointed centres repeat continuously throughout the season and well into fall, then drop cleanly, so the bush is delightfully low maintenance. The steady supply of fragrant blooms is showcased by large, glossy foliage, and new shoots are a rich burgundy to add even more dimension to the plant’s spectacular display. Grows vigorously to 8′ high and spreads 10′ wide, quickly covering fences and trellises with dynamic colour and breathtaking beauty.
