Description of the plant:
Paul’s Scarlet Climber is a climbing rose developed by William Paul & Son from Hertfordshire, UK, a nursery which was taken over by the Chaplin Bros nursery in 1920s. This rose was introduced in 1915 and is a fast-growing variety classified as wichuraiana hybrid, i.e., East Asian rose that boasts repeated and long-lasting blooming. It bears 5-6 cm wide, semi- to fully double, scarlet red flowers with no fragrance. It blooms most profusely from June to July and then repeats flowering in several flushes until October.Due to its vigorous growth, it is often classified as a rambler rose (the type that wrapped around the fairy tale tower where Sleeping Beauty was held) as it can grow up to 6 meters and is perfect for fences, pergolas, tall arches, and garden arcades. The leaves are large, dark green, rather matte, and usually very healthy. Paul’s Scarlet Climber is a cross between Paul’s Carmine Pillar and Rêve d'Or.
Planting instructions: Prepare a hole of 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 a 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.
