Climbing rose 'Zephirine Drouhin'
Rosa 'Zéphirine Drouhin', an old climbing rose of great heritage value, is prized for its large, bright carmine pink, semi-double flowers with a delicate fragrance. Introduced in the 19th century, it stands out for its almost thornless stems, a rare asset among climbing roses. Its flexible and vigorous habit allows it to elegantly cover trellises, pergolas, arches, and fences, while maintaining a romantic charm typical of old roses. Abundant and remontant, it offers a spectacular first bloom in early summer followed by lighter waves thereafter. Its medium green foliage highlights the richness of its color, although it prefers good air circulation to limit powdery mildew. Adaptable to partial shade, Rosa 'Zéphirine Drouhin' brings fragrance, softness, and vertical elegance to the garden while attracting pollinating insects.
