Cécile Brunner climbing

Climbing Polyantha 

Cécile Brunner, that exquisite Tea Polyantha, gave us this wonderful and still popular climber. 
This rose gets huge and that's rather rare for a reblooming climber. Don't be surprised when she reaches 6 meters or 18 feet and more. Her blooms are 100% identical to those of her mother: Blush pink rosette shaped blooms in clusters. They have this iconic Tea gloss. The mother of Cécile Brunner was the Tea Madame de Tartas.
So imagine a 6 meters big climbing rose covered with thousands of these mini tea flowers and as a bonus you get their strong spicy fragrance. Blooms in flushes throughout the season. Still a very healthy rose and quite hardy zone 5b to 9b.
This rose is suitable for covering big objects like Gazebos, big pergolas, ugly buildings, big walls with a trellis... 
A real old beauty!
