Joseph's Coat Climbing Rose

Joseph's Coat Climbing Rose


Josephs Coat Climbing RoseWhen you plant Joseph's Coat climbing rose, you will brighten up a wall, fence or garden trellis with an ever changing display of color. A true technicolor rose, Joseph's Coat produces 3 inch lipstick red rose buds open to reveal a delightful tangerine orange brushed with lemon yellow. As the flowers mature they become more yellow before fading back to red; the results are a beautiful rich display of different colored roses on one hardy bush, all at the same time.

History of Joseph's Coat Rose:

First introduced in 1969 by Armstrong and Swim, Joseph's Coat parentage includes R. 'Buccaneer' x R. 'Circus. While originally an own root rose, over the years Joseph's Coat climbing rose was bred as a grafted rose to increase production, and meet the demand of gardeners vying for this colorful and floriferous climbing rose. Plant Joseph's Coat rose in groups of three to cover a wall, or plant a pair to climb over a trellis and create a flowering display in the air.

Joseph's Coat is Now Available as an Own Root Rose:

Labeled as a hardy rose from the early days, when it was grown on its own root, we at Stargazer Perennials, like many cold climate gardeners, were frustrated with babying Joesph's Coat through harsh winters only to be disappointed when it died back at the graft joint.  We are so pleased that Joseph's Coat is now once again available as an own root rose. Own root roses are hardier, more disease resistant and bloom more throughout the season. We started growing Joseph's Coat as an own root rose in 2010 for release in 2011, and were ecstatic with the improved blooms, high disease resistance and overall hardiness.

Warm climate gardeners will also be pleased with Joseph's Coat on its own root; I shipped my mom in Arizona several 1 gallon Joseph's Coat to test plant, and she is thrilled! In one season, the 1 gallon roses grew to almost match her existing Joseph's Coat, and they bloomed longer and produced more flowers, in the intense heat of the summer than her grafted variety.
