How heat-tolerant is Climbing Baby?

Q: If by heat-tolerant you mean the low standard of just being satisfied if it blooms in summer, I refuse

A: No! No! No! Climbing Baby's summer flowers can completely rival spring flowers. Even in high heat, the flower color and form are still beautiful, blooming very standard. If there is anything less than ideal, it is that the petal count will be somewhat fewer than in spring. But compared to other varieties that play dead as soon as summer arrives, Climbing Baby's performance is nothing short of amazing~

The color in summer is even more intense

And it is very! Heat! Tolerant!

Q: How tolerant? Don't tell me it just scatters two flowers in summer and autumn; I will pretend I did not see those!

A: Hehe, it blooms almost non-stop from spring to autumn! Although the flower quantity in summer and autumn is less than in spring, it is by no means sparse. With adequate water and fertilizer, Climbing Baby produces quite a lot of flowers (especially compared to other varieties).

Not only is the blooming period long, but individual flowers are also long-lasting. As cut flowers, they can basically lastover a weekoh~

The branches are quite stiff, so it is actually quite suitable for vase arrangements~

- A beauty with massive blooms -

The color of Climbing Romantic Baby sets it apart from other climbing roses with a huge dividing line: among all the red and pink beauties, the combination of ochre and yellow is so distinctive that almost no one would mistake it~

Flower diameter: 5-8cm

Petals: 41+

Fragrance: None

In the later stages of blooming, the yellow becomes more prominent, creating a stronger contrast with the outer ochre color

Aside from being fragrance-free, its biggest drawback is probablysmall flowers(But whether 5-8cm is small is a matter of opinion; some gardeners prefer medium-sized flowers)

But even if the flowers are "small," in the face of the massive flower quantity, this drawback can be completely ignored! The biggest characteristic of climbing roses is the large flower quantity in spring, butClimbing Baby's flower quantity is not just large, it ismassive! Especially after growing into a large plant, the effect is roughly

3-year-old plant, 7-8 meters wide, 3 meters tall

- A spiked club for guarding the home -

Climbing Romantic Baby is a variety from Meilland of France. Meilland roses are completely worry-free when it comes to disease resistance, because their top breeding priority isstrong disease resistance。

Strong disease resistance, fast growth rate, vigorous growth. With all these traits combined, Climbing Baby can basically cover a wall or fence with a 3-year-old plant, and with its body covered indense thorns, it is practically a giant spiked club...

You could say it is a master at guarding the home

Although summer is hard to endure

Fortunately, there are quite a few heat-tolerant varieties to keep us company through the summer

Are you ready to welcome this hot summer?
