Botanical profile

Climbing rose 'Pearly Gates'

Rosa ‘Pearly Gates’ is an elegant climbing rose with delicate colouring. It captivates with its large, double, light lavender flowers with silvery undertones, whose soft hue evokes old roses while maintaining a classic, well-turbinated shape. The thick, satiny petals offer excellent hold, even after rain, and highlight a moderate, sweet, and slightly lemony fragrance. Produced in regular clusters, the flowers ensure a generous and recurrent bloom that brings a refined presence to arches, trellises, and pergolas. Its dark green, dense, and vigorous foliage contributes to good disease resistance and creates a harmonious contrast with the softness of the colour. Rosa ‘Pearly Gates’ is particularly appreciated for its romantic elegance and its ability to visually soften vertical structures while actively attracting pollinating insects.
