climbing rose

Ascending garden bloom

A climbing rose is a variety of rose with long, flexible canes that can be trained to grow upward along trellises, arbors, fences, or walls.

Unlike true climbing plants, climbing roses don't attach themselves—they must be tied or woven through supports.

They produce abundant blooms and can reach considerable heights: The climbing rose covered the entire garden wall.
