Climbing, Thornless Pink Roses
Why Zephirine Drouhin Climbing Roses?
Introduced in 1868, the Zephirine Drouhin has truly stood the test of time, delivering unmatched color and fragrance for more than a century. It's hard to find a tried-and-true climbing rose with reliable blooms, but the Drouhin is unlike any other rose variety you've seen.
Bright pink color with hints of fuchsia defines the Zephirine Drouhin. Beginning as tight, pointed buds that reveal full, semi-double petals, each Zephirine Rose is a treat for the eyes. And not only do they look stunning...but they also emanate a rich scent you'll have to smell to believe!
Even better? These roses bloom almost continuously from late spring to the first frost. Repeat bloomers in the rose family are almost unheard-of, but Zephirine Drouhin breaks the mold. This heirloom variety's semi-gloss green foliage, which emerges bright copper-red, offers the perfect backdrop to its numerous pink roses.
Plus, it's extremely mildew-resistant and has thornless stems, so there's no muss or fuss when it comes to the Drouhin. You get a climbing rose, profuse bloomer, and vigorous grower all in one. Reaching amazing heights of 15 to 20 feet, it's well-suited to trellises or tall arbors over porches. It can even be trained into a tree or hedge! Noted for its shade growth and poor soil tolerance, this semi-double star thrives almost anywhere.

Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a spot with well-drained soil and full sun (6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day).
Plant your rose in a hole twice as wide but just as deep as the root ball. Water immediately to establish roots. Add a 3-inch layer of mulch around the surrounding soil.
If you're planting in a container, select a pot that's about twice the size of your plant's shipped container and use organic soil. Place your rose, water to settle its roots, and find a sunny spot on your porch or patio to place your container.
2. Watering: Water weekly, or check the surrounding soil. When the soil is dry about 3 inches down, it's time to water your rose.
If your rose is container-planted, water until you see it flowing from the drainage holes at the bottom.
3. Fertilizing: Feed with a liquid rose fertilizer, once in the spring and once in the summer. Follow the instructions on the package.
4. Pruning: Other than for shaping purposes, no pruning is required for your Zephirine Drouhin Rose.
