To: Knitting A Conundrum

Oh, THANK you for starting this thread! We had a 3 rail white equine fence put up across the 130 feet of our front yard road border, and the man who put it up also dug holes about every 8 feet between posts for roses, I was thinking of red climbers, thought it'd be pretty over the fence. I was wanting something that blooms like crazy all summer long...

Climbing roses can be so pretty. I am thinking of putting some in the back yard next year, but I know I'll be lucky to rework my front this year.

I have a fence that has beautiful miniature white roses climbing over it. I began to plant different roses around the yard and each year the white roses get a pink or yellow shade to them. I never know what will show up. I love sterling roses but I don't have too much luck with them. I do have a trellis with fourth of July roses that do very well. The thorns are horrible though.

SALLY HOLMES--6-12 feet whitish rose hedge type rose from EDMUNDS ROSES

I think Stark has something similar.

But probably a climber of a deep red would look more beautiful on the fence. The one above would obscure the fence eventually.
