Climbing Rose ‘Edgar Degas’
Painters Collection | Striped Raspberry, Pink & Yellow Blooms
‘Edgar Degas’ is an expressive climbing rose with semi-double, artistically striped blooms
in raspberry-pink, deeper pink splashes and yellow/cream undertones. Lightly fragrant and very showy,
it produces flushes through the season. Train on arches, pillars or trellises for dramatic vertical colour;
when untrained it forms a willowy, wide shrub.
Plant Care

- Fertilizer: Feed in early spring, after the first flush, and again mid-summer
