Family Rosaceae

The 'John Cabot' Rugosa Rose is a climbing rose from the Canadian Explorer series, renowned for its great hardiness and abundant blooms. It develops long, arching, vigorous stems that can be trained on a trellis, fence, or pergola, while maintaining a bushy habit if unsupported. Its intense fuchsia pink semi-double flowers appear in generous clusters from early summer until the first frosts. Its medium green foliage shows good disease resistance and highlights the brilliance of the flowers. Very cold-tolerant, the 'John Cabot' Rugosa Rose is perfectly suited for northern climates and adds verticality, vivid color, and a romantic character to full-sun landscapes.
