Ghislaine de Feligonde Rose Bushes

Ghislaine de Feligonde Rambling Rose

Ghislaine de Feligonde is an old rambling rose, that remains popular because of her ability to cover a wall, the longevity of her flowers and the precious ability to do well on a north facing wall. Each rose looks like a sculpted dessert: whipped peaks of apricoty-peachy-creamy petals with a garnish of golden stamens in the centre to complete the look.
Being small and dear, there are lots of them with good, green leaves and, another joy, she has almost thornless stems. That makes a difference when you are up a ladder pruning! As a RHS AGM holder, she performs reliable and rarely succumbs to illness.
All in all, one of the best of our range of rambling roses.

Growing Ghislaine de Feligonde

A thornless rambling rose that is unfazed by a North facing wall is a rare thing, killing several garden problems with one stone. She works well close to paths and doors because she won't scratch. Her colouring works well with brick and stone, and she will quickly disguise any shed. She teams up well with other apricot roses, or you could emphasise her unusual colouring with a neutral rose Champagne Moments.

Being a rambler, with their more relaxed pruning regime, you could thread any number of other climbers like clematis or a scented honeysuckle through her stems.
