Climbing Roses for Fences, Buildings and Walls

Climbing roses are a great value and beautiful at the same time. Climbing roses can climb trees, buildings, fences or against walls, pillars or outdoor decking roofs, or pergolas. Climbing roses generally have large beautiful flowers and may bloom repeatedly throughout the Summer and Fall seasons.

Climbers naturally grow vertically; however, if they are allowed growing this way, there will be fewer shoots, resulting in fewer flowers. Better to train the rose stems of the climber to grow horizontally along a fence or trellis, resulting in many more shoots and rose blooms.

Climbing roses need water.ֲ  Be sure to use your home garden hose to give them plenty of life-giving water.
