Mermaid Climbing Rose
Full Sun, Partial Shade
Zones 7-9, grows 15 to 30 feet

This one's been around for a while and when you experience it in person you'll know why! Mermaid has delicate single flowers of butter cream fading to a clear yellow in the center. Golden amber stamens accent the center and give the blooms a regal glow. A much beloved rose, it has been the subject of fabric and wallpaper designs through the Victorian, Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts eras. Mermaid is a vigorous grower with glossy green leaves and unusual thorns. Paul, 1918.
