Rosa 'Sombreuil' (Climbing Rose) - This healthy but thorny climber is the hardiest and most vigorous of the white Teas. The creamy white blooms are very large, flat and quartered, with the most delicious Tea fragrance. The plant is reportedly free from mildew. A mannerly climber, 'Sombreuil' is ideally suited for use as a pillar rose, or to be trained on a low wall, fence or trellis. A beautiful rose for a warm summer evening, when the white, saucer-sized blossoms seem to glow in the dark.
The information about Rosa 'Sombreuil' that is displayed on this web page is based on research conducted in our nursery's horticultural library and from reliable online resources.
