New Dawn Pink Climbing Rose
Introduced in 1930 and Still the Favorite!
'New Dawn' is a free-flowering, easy-to-grow standout rose. Its blooms are fragrant, its dark green foliage lush and surprisingly disease-resistant, and its season of bloom very long. Each fully double bloom measures 3 to 4 inches wide, sporting tones of pearlescent blush. The scent is powerfully sweet, making 'New Dawn' a great choice for the vase as well as the garden. And the blooms arise in big clusters, so a single snip makes a bouquet.
Climbing 18 to 20 feet high and 7 to 10 feet wide, 'New Dawn' flowers reliably all summer long and into autumn in many climates. A classic for more than 75 years, it is a superb choice for a wide variety of areas. Zones 5-9.

What to Expect |
Container roses should typically be planted in late spring and fall. They’re easy to plant (all you need is a trowel), and they provide instant gratification, as they aren’t dormant and will have buds within a few short weeks, if they don’t when they arrive. They’re also perfect for transplanting into containers and make an attractive gift. |

Container roses are usually nicely leafed out, and may even have flowers on them, which is a great way for you to know when you purchase them what they’re going to look and smell like.
