Climbing rose 'Don Juan'

FamilyRosaceae

Rosa 'Don Juan', a climbing rose with an intense character and deep fragrance, is known for its large, double, dark velvet-red flowers with thick, satiny petals forming an elegantly structured cup. Its powerful, rich, and captivating fragrance makes it one of the most popular red climbers for gardens where scent is as sought after as visual impact. The flowers are produced in regular clusters and offer sustained blooming that beautifully enhances arches, pergolas, and trellises. Its dark green, dense, and vigorous foliage creates a spectacular contrast with the depth of the red and contributes to good overall resistance. Appreciated for its chromatic intensity and remarkable floral quality, Rosa 'Don Juan' brings passion, elegance, and distinct verticality to the garden while actively attracting pollinating insects.
