I inherited this rose so I don't know what it is. It has become big and strong in my ten years here. It is a cluster flowered, scarlet red climber. The flowers are not scented but it repeats and repeats all season so has more than earned its place. It looked great through the Fremontedenron (RIP) and had to be cut back when it (the F) was removed in 2012 but it has put on great new, thick growth since then and is flourishing again in 2013.
