The Rosa 'Cherry Frost', a climbing rose with striking contrast, stands out with its large, double, pure white flowers delicately edged in cherry red, creating a clear and bright two-tone effect. Each flower, well-formed and structured, offers excellent longevity and highlights the intensity of the red border which deepens with maturity. Produced in regular clusters, the flowers ensure a generous and continuously reblooming display, ideal for enlivening pergolas, arches, and trellises. Its light fragrance accompanies a sustained floral presence throughout the season. Its dark green, dense, and vigorous foliage contributes to good overall resistance and emphasizes the sharpness of the contrast. The Rosa 'Cherry Frost' brings freshness, graphic elegance, and distinctive visual impact to vertical landscaping while actively attracting pollinating insects.
