Patriotic Climbing Rose
'Fourth of July' is a remarkable climbing rose, which you may want to look for in nurseries and garden centers this season.
The first climber to be named an All American Rose Selection (awarded to the year's top roses) in 23 years, it produces a fireworks-like show of velvety red flowers marked with bright white. The flowers bloom the first year after planting and continue all summer long. To top it off, they have a wonderful apple-like fragrance.
'Fourth of July' is a hardy rose adapted to most rose-growing areas. It produces vigorous 10- to 14-foot canes, which need to be tied to a trellis for support. For a truly patriotic show, plant blue pansies, violas or primrose at the base of 'Fourth of July'.
To give your new roses a healthy start use Bayer Advanced™ 2-in-1 Systemic Rose & Flower Care Granules. It feeds your roses and protects against insects for up to six weeks.
