Description

Easlea's Golden Rambler Rose

Easlea's Golden Rambler was bred by Walter Easlea in the UK in 1927 and is a hybrid of the group Wichurana although its parentage is unknown. Its growth habit, with rigid flowering stems, is such that it could be considered a climber and not a rambler and it can be used in the same way as a climbing hybrid tea. The foliage is very good, being strong and dark, glossy green. The flowers are a rich vibrant yellow with several rows of petals that open up to display the pistils and stamens. It fades gently to a creamy yellow. It is considered one of the aristocrats of yellow climbing roses and is delightfully tea scented.

Great for your garden

Easlea's Golden Rambler can be used in any situation suitable for either a climber or a rambler. It has strong growth, eventually reaching a height of 20' (6m) and, although very good over an arch or pergola, can be grown against a wall or pillar as the individual flowers are held on long, strong stems and do not need to be seen from beneath. It is a fabulously extravagant rose and well worth growing for its one magnificent flowering. It could be grown with a clematis to fill the flowering gap. Niobe would be a good candidate with its strong dark red colouring and 4" flowers.

Trivia

Walter Easlea, who bred Easlea's Golden Rambler, started his career working for William Paul & Son in the early 1900s. His great love was hybridization and he soon set up on his own in Leigh-on-Sea in Essex and joining the Council of the National Rose Society. In 1920 he collaborated with another famous rose grower, H H Thomas, producing The Rose Book - a Complete Guide for Amateur Rose Growers and, in 1927, he bought Easlea's Golden Rambler to the market. No other yellow climbing rose really competes.
