Rafiq's Comments
It was planted in Nov-12, its growth rate is comparatively slow compare to others ie moderate growth rate. Flower shape is true spiral in semi bloomed condition.
Flowers have mild fragrance in this season. Images were taken on 17-Oct-13. Flowers color is light orange. The climber is planted under guava tree(may be the cause of its slow growth rate). To remove the shade of gauve tree, its trimmed high and its trunk is now using as a support.
One of most attractive and beautiful flowered rose climber i have seen.

KBW's Comments
I have no experience of growing this beautiful looking rose but I know both her parents. Don't you see lot of Fragrant Cloud in America The bloom shape is more towards Tradition but colour is more towards Fragrant Cloud.

Yes you are right the pictures posted by you are from a botanical garden & they are 100 % when it comes to ID.I can not forget Kew Botanical, Glagow botanic (UK) & Niagra Botanic garden (Canada). There is a great garden specifically for roses in Germany i am not remebering the name at the moment.I wish i could also see that garden. KBW bhut mehnat karte hain ye log. They are the athentic source of information.

The rose garden i wish to see & is my Dream garden is Sangerhausen, Germany. It was the first to introduce the popular first black rose Nigrette. KBW visit their web site you will really enjoy this garden.If you want to add Nigrrete i,l post some pictures of this great rose.You may be also find it in Niagra gardens.This fist black rose was bred by German breeders Max Kruse in 1934. Still its one of the finest dark red rose.It is also called The Black Rose of Sangerhausan.

I have no experience of growing this rose but as per Changa Nursery, this rose has not performed well in hot Pakistani climate. (I wanted to argue with them that if you plant a rose like that as shown in the picture than you can't blame the rose much but still, I have to take their point). Does any other member has experience of growing Rock & Roll??
