Rosa 'Meironssesar' GPT CHRISTOPHE COLOMB® - Rosier grimpant Christophe Colomb, Rosier Christophe Colomb Climbing

The Christophe Colomb® 'Meironssesar' Climbing Rose displays spectacular blooms where Indian orange subtly blended with red evoke the fiery glow of an ocean sunset. Continuous and abundant, its large, turbinate roses measuring 13 cm offer a colourful display from spring until the first frosts. Its vigorous growth and disease resistance make it an ideal choice for adorning walls, pergolas, and large trellises.

A natural mutation of the famous eponymous bush rose introduced in 1992, the Christophe Colomb® 'Meironssesar' Climbing Rose is also known as Rosa SABRINA. It belongs to the group of Large-Flowered Climbers and the Rosaceae family. It retains the disease resistance and flamboyant brilliance of its predecessor while developing a vigorous and expansive growth. Its long woody climbing stems that reach 2 to 3 metres in length require careful horizontal training to encourage abundant and continuous flowering. Its generously proportioned, refined flowers can reach 13 cm in diameter and reveal a turbinate corolla of around thirty petals. Their colour, a true signature of the variety, blends Indian orange and red with a luminous and coppery gradient that magnificently captures the light. Their fragrance is subtle yet pleasant, and their excellent durability makes them perfect flowers for cut flower displays. The flowering begins with a spectacular first wave in May-June followed by regular reblooming throughout summer, before a final burst at the end of the season, extending their brilliance until the frosts. Its dark green, satin-like, dense and vigorous foliage forms an ideal background to highlight the richness of its hues. It persists late into the season and boasts excellent disease resistance, ensuring a healthy and lush rose bush throughout the year. Its sturdy, thorny, and well-covered thorny branches also make it an excellent choice for adorning fences and railings, combining protection and aesthetics. Its impressive vigour enables it to cover an area of 12 to 15 m², making it an ideal candidate for large walls, fronts, pergolas, and imposing trellises. To provide a surrounding worthy of its development, it is recommended to provide it with a sufficiently spacious and sturdy support, carefully training its main stems to maximise flower production.
