Perfect in small properties and acreages alike, the well-appointed First Editions® Ramblin' Red® Climbing Rose PP#14,270 (Rosa 'RADramblin') is a super-showy addition to your landscape! Attractive clusters of deep pinkish-red, fully double blooms repeat in lavish flushes from late spring through the first frost of fall! The satiny finish of the petals sets off the spicy-scented blooms that fill your vases indoors!
Welcome spring and draw pollinators with ruby-red blooms! Once fully open, you'll be treated to bright yellow eyes that act like a bullseye for bees! Even when not in bloom, you'll enjoy the burgundy new growth which turns voluptuous dark green all summer. Then autumn offers deep, merlot-red fall color and bright orange Rose Hips for tea, jelly, and birds!
Compact growth of lush green foliage and strong canes that won't take up very much room at the base - but these beauties grow tall to offer a brilliant splash of color when trained onto sturdy structures! A cousin of the Knock Out® series, Ramblin' Red® forms long, flexible canes that make this a truly versatile Climbing Rose shrub and can be used either as climbers or as rambling, flowering landscape additions!
Very cold hardy and resistant Roses, these are cold-hardy down to USDA growing zones 4 through 7! Reaching a sizeable 6 to 10 feet in height when allowed to Ramble, these space-saving plants only spread 3 to 4 feet wide, Ramblin' Red® Rose is grown on its own root, and rarely displays winter die-back.
Planting and Application:
Make a sunny side yard a feature in your landscape with a vertical Climbing Rose! You'll squeeze the most out of your investment with a long trellis adorned with bold blooms! Train a pair of these pretty bloomers with their light, spicy fragrance up and across a garden gate. Add a trellis up and around your front door for a modern take on classic Cottage Gardens!
You can even plant them along a fence without tying them up! Let them cascade and ramble over each other to create a thicket that birds adore and will serve as a pretty border that will be sure to keep trespassers at bay. Double-duty fencing and hedges also offer up delightful backdrops to garden beds and borders with a slice of scented privacy!
Because Ramblin' Red® Rose develops orange hips, it makes a wonderful addition to wildlife-friendly landscapes. Songbirds will take them after a few freezes, or you can gather them for yourself to craft Vitamin C-rich homemade Rose Hip jelly or fall décor!
Have one of those steep hillsides or eroding slopes that are tricky to mow? Plant a Ramblin' Red® at the top and let it spill down the embankment, turning a problem spot into a colorful spectacle! Let cascade over the top of a rock wall or retaining wall for a pretty solution to an eyesore!
Even container gardeners can enjoy these blooms! Create screening and living fences with these densely branched canes and you'll enjoy old-fashioned Rose 'wallpaper' around your outdoor garden room! You'll also enjoy sipping your favorite beverage under a shady wall filled with soft pink blooms in a private garden nook, or at a bistro set under a flowering arbor! Train onto a lattice in a large planter and balconies, decks and porches gain privacy, shade, and screening

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Climbing Roses bloom the best and have the strongest canes and the most blooms in full sun, favoring the drying powers of the morning sun. Plant in enriched, average to medium, well-drained soils and moisture during the summer heat. Apply high-quality Rose food, following the directions on the label. For optimum flowering and disease resistance, planting areas with good air circulation. Be sure to add a 3 - 4-inch layer of arborist mulch to retain moisture.
How to Prune and Train Climbing Roses
Pruning should not be done during the first two to three years, since Climbing Roses need time to build flowering Rose canes. These structural canes will grow thicker for several years before it is time to replace them.
Spring Pruning and Structural Rejuvenation
Remember that spring pruning is most limited to removing broken branches, and dead tips or correcting the structure of the Climbing Roses. If you remove long canes and side branching you will be removing the first set of June flowers.
- Prune Roses in early spring just as you see new buds beginning to swell.
- Remove any dead, diseased, or damaged branches.
- Identify several new, younger, more vigorous canes to become the new structural foundation of your beautiful Climbing Rose.
- Remove the fattest, oldest canes out at the soil level, if possible and right after the first set of flowers finishes. Those canes will be replaced with new shoots that develop from the base. As these new, rapidly produced shoots elongate, you will want to direct, train, and tie them into the place you would like them to develop.
Summer Maintenance and Pruning
Horizontal branches produce the most flowers. Prune these secondary canes after flowering, because Climbing Roses bloom on last year's canes (old wood).
- Cut your secondary canes down to 6 - 8 inches above a bud after the first flush of flowers has finished.
- Trim the secondary canes back at 90 to 45-degree angles.
- Keep your structural support canes in place.
In colder regions it may be more difficult to maintain Climbing Roses, so choosing your planting site is important.
Winter protection is best for Roses grown in zones 7 and colder. Mulch is your best, more natural way to overwinter Roses by mounding the dormant canes in late fall. Don't fall prune, rather instead wait until spring.

Climbing Rose FAQs
Where Is The Best Place To Plant Roses?
Climbing Roses prefer full sun and favor the drying power of the morning sun, flowering best in at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Choose a location in good, enriched soil that drains well and has good air circulation.
What Is The Best Month to Plant Roses?
You can plant Roses any time if you can provide enough consistent moisture and attention. There is not a specific month that is best, generally because it changes with temperatures, climate, and growing zone. However, the easiest times of the year to get Rose bushes established in your landscape are in spring after the last frost date, and in fall about 4-6 weeks before the first frost.
Do Roses Come Back Every Year?
Roses are deciduous woody perennial shrubs and will return bigger and better each year. Ramblin' Red is an 'own root' Climbing Rose and will regrow from the roots perfectly after winter dieback in harsh winters.
