Wanted Purple Climbing Smelly Rose
 
Looking for a climber. I want Deep color - could be dark red. He wants
them to smell nice. ( to climb up a south east porch - Zone 5 or 6 - Nova
Scotia). Any suggestions for the perfect rose?

Hey JT!

I don't know how cold hardy it is but I am told the Don Juan climber
is very fragrant and it is a deep red color.

I'm a rose newbie so please double check what I say. :-)

Ah Nova Scotia what a beautiful part of the world!

Jay in Vegas...starting to get pretty warm now!

1. Cut off a nice bloom of your white rose.

2. Put it in water with blue food coloring.

3. Wait.

Hope this helps,

It takes my breath away.

If you're in the Annapolis valley or on the Northumberland Strait and
have a nice mild winter with good snow cover, you could try Don Juan --
it's got a pretty rose, but the scent isn't too strong. It also tends to
get mildewy, which could be a problem if you've got a lot of fog. I've
got a David Austin 'Othello' which is a dark magenta color -- cabbage
rose form -- strong perfume, and although it isn't rated as a climber,
we grew it up over an archway trellis one year. Check in the towns
around: this is a good time to go for a walk or drive to see what roses
are in bloom, and see if someone will tell you what they've got :-D
