More information
This widely grown rose is a vigorous rambler. The flowers are small, with petals arranged in a rosette. On opening, the blooms are lilac-pink, fading to white over the next couple of days. With a strong musk fragrance and pale green foliage, they are borne in large clusters of 30-50 flowers.
Seedling of Rosa brunonii. Among the most widespread single-flowered ramblers, this rose is cultivated broadly for vigorous growth and ease of cultivation. The flowers are about 3cm in diameter, produced densely in clusters; lilac-pink, fading to white. Strongly musk-scented and accompanied by bright green foliage, they appear in clusters of 30-50. When planted at the base of a large tree, within a couple of years it will ascend and flower heavily, producing cascading displays.
The name differs from the true Himalayan Musk Rose: Rosa moschata nepalensis (R. brunonii) is distinct, with bright green, narrow foliage, whereas Paul’s Himalayan Musk Rambler has comparatively shallower foliage and a fragrance similar to Rosa multiflora. The variety is considered to descend from Rosa brunonii or Rosa filipes, indicated by similarly slender flowering shoots. It is a large climbing rose with long, flexible shoots. The flowers are lilac-pink, small, double, appearing in large clusters in early summer.
