Leander
Rose * Introduced in 1982 |
| Leander can be noted for
its long 6-8 foot arching
canes. I have had success by treating it as a medium sized climber or large shrub
rose. The first set of flowers are at the tips of the canes and as successive blooms
appear new buds break out further and further down the canes. The rich apricot
colored blooms are beautiful against the dark green leaves and red canes. I have had
success with the Leander rose in less than ideal lighting, though most recommend full
sun.
David Austin released this rose in 1982. The parents of
the Leander rose include 'Charles Austin'
and a seedling.
