Rosa Open Arms (Rambling Rose)

A miniature rambler, Rosa Open Arms is a vigorous climbing rose with arching shoots adorned by fragrant, single, salmon-pink flowers, 1.5 in. across (4 cm). Pleasantly scented, the blooms (6-14 petals) open to reveal their golden stamens and gradually fade to pale pink as they mature. Free flowering, this rambler rose blooms continuously throughout the summer into the fall. Easy to train, the stems bear very small, narrow, healthy leaves. Perfect for small gardens, Rose 'Open Arms' is a great choice for walls, fences, trellises or pillars. It may also be grown as a large shrub. Very good disease resistance.
