'John Cabot' Climbing Antique Rose - Super Hardy - 2.5" Pot
John Cabot is a beautiful and easy to grow winter-hardy climbing rose. It has large, semi-double blossoms that are a deep-pink to medium-red color. The blossoms have a slight fragrance and are borne in clusters of 3 to 10 blossoms. This rose is covered in blooms in late June and early July, and then has repeat blossoms throughout the rest of the summer. John Cabot is easily trained to climb a post, as shown in the photo to the left. It can climb about 9 feet or so in Zone 4a. Or it can be left untrained to form a large, arching shrub that will spread about 8-feet wide and get about 6-feet tall. It has healthy foliage and is very winter hardy; it can be left on a trellis with no cane dieback in Zone 4a. It's an easy care rose that's great for all gardens.
