Climbing rose 'Pearly Gates'

Climbing Rose 'Pearly Gates' (Rosa ‘Pearly Gates’). Rosa 'Pearly Gates', an elegant climbing rose with a delicate color, seduces with its large, double, light lavender flowers with silvery reflections. Their soft hue evokes old roses while maintaining a classic, well-turbinated form. The thick, satiny petals offer excellent durability, even after rain, and showcase a moderate, sweet, and slightly lemony fragrance. Produced in regular clusters, the flowers ensure generous and recurrent blooming, adding a refined presence on arches, trellises, and pergolas.

To plant climbing rose 'Pearly Gates', choose an appropriate exposure: full sun. The recommended soil is rich, deep, and well-drained. Water at the base and allow air to circulate between the branches. Remove dead parts with a clean tool, then adapt pruning to the rose's group. Winter protection depends on its hardiness and the potential presence of a graft union. Water the root ball before planting it and ensure water can drain after planting. During recovery, check moisture by hand before watering again.

Allow a width of 1.5 m (5 ft) to arrange this plant's space in the garden. The indicated height of 2.5 m (8 ft) helps choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Keep access to the base for weeding, checking moisture, and removing damaged parts. Combine this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Potted roots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
