Modern Climber
Claire Renaissance X Abraham Darby
A very underrated rose, especially in Western Europe. In Eastern Europe, Ukraine and Russia this rose is immensely popular and very rightly so.
This rose combines the healthy, very free flowering and fragrant features of Claire Renaissance with the unsurpassed blooms of Abraham Darby. Both being extremely fragrant it was written in the stars that Bienvenu would be equally fragrant.
Bienvenu can be bred as a climber and then it can reach 300 cm or 9 feet or you keep her shorter and she'll behave as a large shrub. She needs support in both cases as she produces masses of blooms.
These blooms are medium to large, pink and very full and old fashioned. They usually stand in clusters. The fragrance is really really strong, Old rose with citrus.
Not often without blooms she will adorn your garden for months and her health is also top notch. Zone 6b to 9b, rain tolerant but loves full sun.
This rose really is "Bienvenu"
