Description
Create a wall of spectacular color with vibrant blooms that transform arbors, trellises, and pergolas all season long.

Incredible, our blooming dynamo covers a 6 foot trellis in just one year

Blaze of Glory Climbing Rose transforms ordinary garden structures into spectacular living displays. Whether climbing over an arbor, softening a fence, dressing up a pergola, or bringing life to a bare wall, this vigorous climber quickly creates a breathtaking curtain of vibrant blooms that changes color throughout the season. Its remarkable growth, dependable repeat flowering, and exceptional heat tolerance make Blaze of Glory an easy choice for gardeners who want dramatic vertical impact with minimal effort.

Introduced by Jackson & Perkins from the celebrated parentage of Dream Weaver and Dynamite, Blaze of Glory produces generous clusters of fully double blooms in rich orange infused with rose-pink tones that gradually soften to coral as the flowers mature. The ever-changing color display, glossy dark green foliage, and light musky fragrance create a rose that is as dynamic as it is beautiful, blooming continuously from late spring through late fall.

Why You'll Love It

  • Quickly transforms arbors, pergolas, trellises, fences, and walls into colorful garden features
  • Vibrant orange blooms mature through coral and rose-pink shades for an ever-changing display
  • Repeat blooms from late spring through late fall
  • Excellent heat tolerance with sun-fast flowers that maintain their vibrant color
  • Healthy glossy foliage with dependable garden performance
  • Long flowering stems create beautiful fresh-cut bouquets

Why This Rose Stands Out

Jackson & Perkins selects roses that combine outstanding beauty with exceptional garden performance, and Blaze of Glory delivers both on an impressive scale. Rather than simply producing beautiful flowers, it transforms vertical spaces into living architecture filled with color. Few climbing roses offer such vigorous growth while maintaining dependable repeat bloom, excellent heat tolerance, and flowers whose colors evolve beautifully as they mature.

Growing approximately 12 to 14 feet tall, Blaze of Glory quickly establishes an elegant framework of glossy foliage covered with generous clusters of blooms. The rich orange flowers gradually develop coral and rose-pink tones as they mature, giving the plant an ever-changing appearance throughout the bloom cycle. Whether paired with clematis, climbing over a pergola, or creating a dramatic focal point on a trellis, Blaze of Glory brings season-long color and remarkable landscape presence.

Poor shipping process
This shopper rated the product 1 out of 5 stars

The roses arrived in poor condition. Most of the leaves had fell off and the tips of the stems are black. Customer service has been unresponsive.

Year 2 - Going Good
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

It was pretty small when I received this climbing rose which is my first attempt at roses of any kind. I planted it and had leaves, no blooms, but it lived and survived winter. Year 2, I watched J&P videos on feeding/fertilizing and I actually have blooms and there is a lot more growth this year. Rose heads are a bit small still but it is doing great. So much so I decided to branch out into trying other types of roses this year too. Very happy.

Not Blaze of Glory
This shopper rated the product 1 out of 5 stars

I ordered this rose and waited 3 months for it to arrive. Planted it and a bloom that was a creamy white was the rose that grew. It should be a bright orange color. Very disappointed.

Blaze of Glory
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

The color is spectacular! I bought a bare root, and had my first bloom 3 months later. The blooms are short lived, but exploding with color, making "Blaze of Glory" the perfect name for these beauties!

Super slow growth
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars

The plant was very tiny and weak when I received it. Its been weeks and only a few leaves have grown. I hope its worth the money.

Choosing Your Roses

Bare root roses are the most common form of roses for spring and early season planting, and come in two types: grafted and own root.

Grafted Bare root Roses
Own root Bare root Roses

Grafted roses, sometimes referred to as budded bare root roses, have roots that belong to a different variety of rose than the shoots. While the shoots will grow into the variety of rose you've selected, the root variety has been specially grown and developed for hardiness, improved resistance to common diseases, and improved resistance to certain weather conditions. The roots on any grafted rose you receive are usually already two years old, so they'll establish in your garden more quickly when planted.

Own root roses are grown from rose shoot cuttings and develop their own root system. Unlike grafted roses, both their roots and shoots come from the same variety of plant.


All Jackson & Perkins bare root roses are maintained in a suspended state of growth in our state-of-the-art wet cooler, so they'll be delivered to you with no foliage or blooms. The wet cooler has a uniform storage temperature set just above freezing and uses a fog system to provide consistent humidity of 100%, ensuring the roses remain fully hydrated and don't exit dormancy before leaving our facility. While you might see some variance in size, even within the same variety of bare root rose, all our roses meet the same rigorous standards of quality.

So, not sure which type of bare root rose you should choose? Don't worry, we've got that covered. We've researched which varieties of bare root roses grow better as grafted or own root, and both types can be planted in the early spring months, so just choose the variety of rose you're most interested in and get planting.

Though you might be surprised or intimidated when you receive a box of bare root roses filled with roots and shoots, rest assured, with the proper care, these little bundles will grow into stunning roses.


Container Roses

Container Roses

Container roses are typically available in 2-quart sizes or larger and come with established foliage that may or may not have blooms. While bare root roses should generally be planted in early spring, container roses allow you quite a bit more flexibility in planting time, from spring all the way through fall in many zones. Fall can be a good season to plant container roses because it allows them enough time to establish themselves before cold or freezing temperatures arrive.
