The Guiness record for the tallest rose bush is somewhere
around 11 feet. This is supposedly with the help of some
sort of commercial rose food. I forget the brand.

I used to have one that would routinely get to be about ten feet tall, but
when I forgot to prune it one spring it grew taller than that. It had
hundreds of flowers as well. I used no fertilizers, and I barely even
watered it. This was in Salt Lake City.
