'Polestjarnan' (Polestar)

I had been trying for years to find this climbing rose for our inventory without success, so a couple of years ago I found it retail and paid a very hefty sum for it for our own gardens. It grew up and over and started down the other side of our new arch in two seasons. I was totally excited then to find it being offered when I traveled through the eastern part of Canada. It comes from Finland, I now know, and is one of the most vigorous and hardiest climbing roses available. So here it is, although our quantities are limited.

Zone: 2

Price: $22.00
