rambling rose
Sprawling garden flower
A rambling rose is a climbing rose variety that produces long, flexible canes and clusters of small flowers, typically blooming once per season.
Ramblers grow vigorously and somewhat wildly, sprawling over walls, fences, and trellises: The rambling rose had overtaken the garden shed.
The phrase evokes cottage gardens and nostalgic romanticism.
