Rosa Climbing Rose ‘Starlight Express’

This beautiful climbing rose is very vigorous, but only reaches a moderate height when mature and is suitable for climbing against walls, fences, arches and pergolas in open sunny sites. Its healthy dark green foliage is the perfect foil for the abundant clusters of semi-double deep pink scented flowers, which are attractive to bees, and appear over an exceptionally long period from June to September. The flowers have the added advantage of being good for cutting. This rose was launched to support the Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital. Our Roses have been nurtured for at least three years – from the seed grown rootstock and then hand grafted with the rose variety and eventually grown onto a mature plant. The stems have been sprayed with a near-invisible natural latex material which helps protect the growth from drying out.
