Potted roses are supplied in a 5.5 litre pot.

(Modern Climbers) Clusters of fully double, rich deep pink blooms tumble forth in generous abundance from early summer right through to late autumn, making Pink Perpétue one of the most reliably repeat-flowering climbers in cultivation. The flowers carry a pleasing moderate fragrance, and their warm carmine-rose tones set beautifully against a backdrop of handsome dark green foliage.

Frequently asked questions

Bare-root Pink Perpetue roses are best planted during their dormant season, from November to March, which is also when we dispatch them. Potted roses are grown in containers and can be planted at any time of year — just avoid periods of hard frost or drought, and water thoroughly after planting.

Every rose we sell is covered by our 1-year Rose Guarantee, so you can plant Pink Perpetue with confidence. See our Rose Guarantee page for the full details.

Often, yes — we grow our roses ourselves and stock varies through the season, so a variety that's sold out can come back. Use the "Notify me" button above to be emailed the moment Pink Perpetue is back in stock.

Pink Perpetue's mature growth range is 360cm x 240cm (12ft x 8ft). Growing conditions such as soil, sunlight, feeding and pruning can affect the final size, so treat this as a guide rather than an exact figure.

Climbing roses produce fewer, larger flowers on stiffer, more upright growth, and most repeat-flower through summer with a light prune each year. Rambling roses grow much more vigorously on long, flexible canes and produce one spectacular flush of smaller flowers in early-to-midsummer, usually pruned just after flowering rather than in winter.

Pink Perpetue belongs to our Modern Climbers family of roses.
