Rosa Ghislaine de Feligonde (Rambling Rose)
An outstanding repeat flowering rose, Rosa ‘Ghislaine de Feligonde’ is a short rambler with generous clusters of small, warm apricot, double flowers, 1.5 in. across (4 cm). Pleasantly scented, the blooms (17-25 petals) open to reveal their golden stamens and gradually fade to buff as they mature. Blooming from early summer to fall, this rambling rose features thornless stems clothed in healthy, light green foliage. It produces decorative hips in the fall that attract birds.
