Climbing rose 'Kiss Me Kate'
FamilyRosaceae
Rosa ‘Kiss Me Kate’, a climbing rose with romantic charm and a remarkable fragrance, is distinguished by its large, very double, soft pink flowers with delicately powdered nuances. The thick, elegantly arranged petals form full, old-fashioned rosettes, while maintaining excellent hold and good weather resistance. Its intense, rich, and fruity fragrance is one of its major assets, particularly appreciated near relaxation areas. Very floriferous and with good remontancy, it produces generous bouquets that elegantly adorn arches and pergolas. Its dark green, dense, and vigorous foliage contributes to excellent disease resistance and highlights the softness of the color. Rosa ‘Kiss Me Kate’ brings elegance, floral opulence, and olfactory intensity to vertical landscaping, while actively attracting pollinating insects.
