Colette Climbing Rose is a compact climbing deciduous shrub with lush dark green foliage that can also be used as a groundcover. The strong tea scented clusters of antique pink, old-rose style double flowers bloom in flushes from late spring into fall. Best grown in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Colette has exceptional disease resistance.
