Orange Climber is an attractive climbing rose bred by Dutch company Verschuren and introduced in 1990. It produces 7-8 cm wide, semi-double flowers with slightly frilled margins. They are rich tangerine orange as they emerge and turn a strong salmon shade when they mature. Flowers appear in several flushes from June until autumn. Mature height is about 2.5 m.
Planting instructions: Prepare a hole of size 30x30 cm. Put your rose in the way that the grafting point is 3 cm deep in the soil. Water well and cover new shoots with soil or bark mulch about 15 cm high. Roses tolerate wide range of soils but thrive in deep, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, in full sun.
Pruning: rambling or climbing roses are not supposed to be pruned. But it can be shaped and kept smaller by careful pruning. Deadheading will help setting new flower buds. Trusses of spent flowers are best removed just above the first leaf with 5 leaflets.
