Rose 'Bobby James'

Rosa 'Bobby James' is an exceptionally vigorous rambler, celebrated for its truly overwhelming display of creamy-white, semi-double flowers in mid-summer. The small blooms, produced in huge clusters, emit an intoxicating musky fragrance that can carry a long distance. This rose is a true powerhouse, capable of reaching 6-8m or more in height and spread. It is perfect for scrambling through very large trees, covering old buildings, or creating a dramatic, naturalistic effect in extensive gardens. It is incredibly hardy (H6) and robust, tolerating a wide range of soils and aspects, including partial shade, though a sunny spot will encourage the best floral abundance. A spectacular, once-flowering rose for those with ample space.
