About a yellow climbing rose with pictures for a gardens friend. At least that’s my excuse for another post on roses. And I’m sticking to it!
I don’t remember this rose being classified as a climber when I purchased it. But I planted it near an arbor because Austin roses do tend to throw long canes. I ordered it because I’d just lost a cat to old age, a cat with burnt yellow/orange markings, Sweet Georgia Brown. Her color; her name.

The place that I planted her has gotten shadier every year so Georgia is trying to walk down the hill toward the sun and away from the trellis. I either need to coax her back up the hill or come up with another method of supporting her.
She’s been robust and colorful every year in my zone 5b garden
