Rosa ‘Debutante’ is a charming rambler rose with large sprays of small, double, cup-shaped, rose-pink flowers eventually fading to blush. Pleasantly primrose scented, each delicate rosette is packed with 17-25 petals that gracefully reflex back. This rambling rose’s long, flexible canes are clothed with healthy, glossy, dark green leaves and are easy to train. Hardy and very vigorous, this heirloom rambler rose is perfect for trailing along walls, fences, pillars, pergolas, and arches. Very disease resistant.

  • Winner of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society
  • Blooms once in late spring or early summer.
  • Grows up to 10-20 ft. tall (3-6 m) and spreads up to 10 ft. (3 m).
  • Best grown in full sun, in moist, moderately fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soils.
  • Ideal as a climber for arbors, fences, and other garden structures.
  • Bred by Michael H. Walsh in 1901.
