Tess of the d'Urbervilles Climbing

This variety makes a superb and striking sight when grown as a climber. It bears large fragrant flowers of bright crimson coloring. They are of a nice, deeply cupped shape in the early stages; the petals turning back to give a less formal, more domed flower. They bend over with their weight, to give an elegant effect. The growth is robust and bushy with large, dark green leaves. There is a good old rose fragrance. This rose is excellent for cutting and displaying in the home. Named after the character from Thomas Hardy’s novel. 6 - 8ft.
