Climbing Rose Peace - 20cm Pot

Climbing Rose ‘Peace’ is a beautiful climbing form of one of the world's most recognised roses, admired for its large exhibition-style blooms in soft yellow, delicately flushed with pink around the petal edges. Its classic colouring and impressive flowers create an elegant display across garden arches, pergolas, fences and trellises.

The large, beautifully formed blooms feature luminous yellow petals with soft pink margins, creating a lovely contrast against the green foliage. As the flowers mature, their colouring can develop subtle variations, adding further interest to the display.

With its pleasant fragrance and vigorous climbing growth, ‘Peace’ is particularly well suited to creating height and structure in the garden. Its long canes can be trained along supporting structures, allowing the impressive flowers to be enjoyed across a larger area.

Climbing ‘Peace’ generally produces a generous main flowering display, with further blooms possible later in the season. Its classic flower shape and attractive colouring also make it a beautiful choice for cut flowers.

The original bush rose ‘Peace’ holds a special place in rose history, becoming the first variety inducted into the Rose Hall of Fame in 1976. Its enduring popularity has made it a favourite with gardeners around the world.

In Melbourne gardens, Climbing ‘Peace’ is a lovely choice for sunny positions where its vigorous growth can be supported and trained to create a beautiful flowering feature.

Care & Growing Tips
Plant Climbing ‘Peace’ in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil, enriched with compost or organic matter. Provide a sturdy trellis, arch, pergola or other suitable structure to support its vigorous growth. Train the main canes horizontally or at an angle where possible to encourage flowering shoots along their length.

Water deeply while establishing and during extended dry periods, particularly throughout Melbourne's warmer months. Apply organic mulch around the base to help retain moisture and keep the roots cool. Feed established roses in late August and again after the main flowering flushes, following the Rose Society of Victoria's seasonal recommendations. For newly planted bare-root roses, delay fertilising until late November or early December.

Prune in July in Melbourne, or August in colder and frost-prone areas, removing dead, damaged and unproductive growth. Unlike bush roses, climbing roses should have their healthy main framework retained, with flowering side shoots shortened as needed. Tie new canes securely to their supports and remove spent flowers to encourage further flowering. Clear fallen leaves and garden debris during winter to help maintain plant health.
