[One of the 65 climbing roses Stephen Scanniello describes in detail in his book and that grows in the Cranford Rose Garden at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. There are several pages devoted to this rose, including its history, cultivation, and a photograph. Here are some highlights, but please refer to the book for more details.]

(formerly Rosa rubiginosa) Cultivated before 1551. Much praised for the delicious apple scent of its foliage… one of the plants the colonists brought to the New World… then, as now, used as a hedge. Flowers: single, although there are or were several double varieties… pale pink with whitish centres. In the 1890s an English judge, Lord Penzance, created a number of eglantine hybrids… the Penzance hybrids… Lord Penzance first exhibited them at Kew Gardens in 1895. The sixteen hybrids, thirteen of which he named after characters in the novels of Sir Walter Scott, had a wider range of colors and more vigor than the wild eglantines; some retained more of the wonderful scented foliage than others… hips are red, one-inch… A very hardy rose that will flourish in full sun or partial shade… it is susceptible to blackspot.

Pages 5-7: Michael H. Walsh in Massachusetts used both R. multiflora and R. wichuraiana [in his breeding program]... In 1909 Walsh introduced Excelsa, a rambler with crimson blossoms… [it] set a new standard for wichuraiana hybrids and it was soon grown everywhere, for it was healthier and easier to train than 'Crimson Rambler' -- the other popular red climber of the day.
