Overview
Adélaïde d'Orléans is a climbing rose raised by Henri Antoine Jacques in 1826, with Rosa sempervirens in its background. It bears white flowers with only a light scent. This is a big plant: it can climb to about 5 m with a spread of up to 4 m, so it needs a sturdy pergola, arch, fence or tree to scramble through. It received the RHS Award of Garden Merit in 1993 and suits gardeners with space for a vigorous historic climber.
