More information
The Kew Rambler is reported to be the result of experimental crosses at Kew Botanic Garden between Rosa soulieana and Hiawatha. If this is correct, it is one of the few hybrids of Rosa soulieana. The flowers are soft pink with a cream centre, quickly fading to white. They appear in large clusters of 20–60 pcs, and the flowers remain on the plant for an extended period. The bush can reach 8 m, with many large thorns and shiny, dark foliage. It blooms once, relatively late; a large number of small orange fruits are present in autumn and winter.
A random hybrid between Rosa soulieana and Hiawatha. Blooms in large clusters of small (4 cm), fragrant, unflowered, soft pink flowers that fade to cream. Reaches 8 m.
