A display of elegance and grace, the Whartons Roses ‘Wedding Day’ Rambling Rose has a profusion of snow-white single flowers that have a strong musk fragrance. With the blooms forming into large clusters, it adds charm to any garden.
Transforming a range of vertical spaces, this rose will flower in a single flush through July and August, first in a cascade of apricot buds that open to cream and turn to brilliant white as the flowers mature. Growing above shiny mid-green leaves, it contrasts perfectly with the vibrancy of the flowers.
With very vigorous growth, this rambling rose looks wonderful left to meander into a large tree, over an arbour or along a wall to add an ethereal touch to a range of structures.
In addition to its ornamental appeal, this rose is an excellent choice for attracting bees and other pollinators into your garden, creating an outside space that is teaming with life and the timeless charm of cascading roses.
