A climbing
sport of the excellent shrub rose "The Fairy" appeared a
few years ago and it has proven to be a rampant (but outstanding)
rose. It grows quite fast and has almost taken over an area along
a fence in my front yard. The canes are thin and extremely pliant
and the rose is easily trained. If I had it to do over again, I would
plant it in an area where it could not intermingle with other plants
because of its aggressiveness. The flowers are lovely and it re-blooms
sporadically throughout the summer. Disease resistance is very good.
