A classic beauty that has been around since the 1930's, if you are looking for a dependable climbing pink rose that has stood the test of time for so many reasons, look no further. 'New Dawn' is a vigorous, free flowering climbing Rose that produces sweetly fragrant soft to light pink double blooms that appear in abundance in spring reblooming prolifically to frost. The 3 to 4 inch flowers come in clusters that with one cutting make the perfect bouquet. Easy to grow, sun and shade tolerant, and disease resistant to black spot, rust and mildew, New Dawn is a great climbing Rose in every way. Growing as tall as 20 feet make her a fine selection for growing on a pergola, arch, fence, wall or pillar.

Growing vigorously 15 to 20 feet tall and 7 to 10 feet wide, the New Dawn Climbing Rose is ideal for growing on fences and rails or up and on arches, arbors, pergolas and other structures. A fine addition to cottage gardens, pink theme gardens, cutting gardens, fragrance gardens and as a background in rose gardens.

The New Dawn Climbing Rose is easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil of average or above average fertility and full sun to part shade. As with all other roses, morning sun is a must to dry dew from the leaves but some afternoon shade or filtered sun is okay. Flowering will be best if the plant receives at least 6 hours of direct sun during the day.  Has good drought tolerance when established and high disease resistance. Prune after flowering if desired.
