Rosa 'Max Bajazzo' - Climbing Rose

The Climbing 'Max Bajazzo' rose bush is a beautiful novelty belonging to the Climbing Max series, developed in Germany by the rose breeder Kordes. This rose has more than one advantage: an exceptional colour, a flowering that continues throughout the summer, and excellent disease resistance, established by the highly selective A.D.R label in 2010. Adopt this worry-free rose for its generosity, vigour, and variegated semi-double corollas. It will climb arches and trellises in just a few years or fill out a large flowering hedge.

This Climbing Max Bajazzo rose is an introduction to the European market 2011. This wonderful modern hybrid is a testament to the patient work and soulless selection of the Kordes house, renowned for its particularly hardy, floriferous, and disease-resistant creations. Climbing Max roses transform the garden into a fabulous flower parade. With their fantastic colours, these versatile climbers look their best when the majority of their long stems are trained horizontally.

'Bajazzo', with its climbing habit, will quickly reach a height of up to 2.50 m (8ft) and have a spread of 80 cm (32in), depending on the growing conditions. Its long stems are covered with numerous prickles, have glossy foliage, a fairly dark green colour, and are particularly healthy. This deciduous foliage, dense and abundant, appears in spring and falls in autumn. The flowers form in June-July, then in successive waves until October. They emerge on short shoots in the second year. They are semi-double corollas measuring 7-8 cm (3in) in diameter, with slightly undulated petals that open almost flat. Their colour ranges from almost red to pink, with orange undersides. The throat, clearly visible, is golden yellow. All these radiant colours mingle on the plant, creating a beautiful, flamboyant effect. The flowers are gathered in generous bouquets and are very popular with bees. This variety produces fruits at the end of the season.

'Climbing Max Bajazzo' is a rose that will please lovers of easy and colourful flowers. It is an ideal subject to dress up a pillar, a brick garage, a trellis, or a wire fence. Trained on an arch near the terrace, it will make a magnificent sight. When allowed to grow freely, without being pruned or trained on a support, it forms a very beautiful bush that can be placed, for example, at the back of a perennial bed or in a large flowering hedge. Roses in this colour range go well with white lilacs, blue-flowered clematis (C.jackmanii, Arabella, Blue Light) and blue and mauve morning glories.
