Rosa ‘Etoile de Hollande’ (Climbing Rose)
Rose 'Etoile de Hollande', Rosa 'Climbing Étoile de Hollande', Rosa 'Grimpant Étoile de Hollande', Hybrid Tea Roses
A superb and very popular climber, Rosa ‘Etoile de Hollande’ is a magnificent climbing rose with masses of very fragrant, large, fully double, deep crimson flowers, 4 in. across (10 cm). Rich with a warm powdery fragrance, the flowers are set off by the healthy foliage of glossy, dark green leaves. Blooming first in early summer, this deliciously fragrant climber produces a second flush of flowers in late summer. Vigorous, reliable, ‘Etoile de Hollande’ is perfect for the sunny border and ideal for walls or fences. The blooms make wonderful rose posies too!
