Sally Holmes Rose is a compact climbing deciduous shrub with nearly thornless stems the dark green foliage's backs. The delicately musk-floral scented ivory white flowers may flush a faint pink in cooler temperatures and bloom heavily in clusters from late spring into fall. Best grown in full sun and rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Sally Holmes has strong disease resistance.
