Breeder's notes:
Striking blooms cover this vigorous climber in generous clusters. Large, glossy foliage grows on the sturdy canes creating an upright structure to show off the novel cream striped, smoky orange blossoms. The unusual color makes this rose a show-stopping topic of conversation. Plant it near an arbor or trellis and it is sure to spark the curiosity of passersby and rose enthusiast alike. Although this plant is registered as a climber and will perform as such in the South, it will grow as a medium-size shrub in the northern locations.
