'Sombreuil' rose Reviews & Comments

Initial post 7 FEB 20 by Emily White

Has anyone grown Sombreuil in Zone 5b? Can it survive/thrive in the cold? Thank you in advance!

I would strongly disagree with the description of the fragrance as moderate - I would rate it 9/10 in strength - amongst my most fragrant roses. Extremely satisfying rose to grow - easy to wind around pillars of a trellis - very vigorous, unusually healthy for a rose of its age. Gives me great pleasure.

I agree. Mine is one of the stronger fragrances in my garden.

Will Climbing Sombreuil do well in a container?

My mother-in-law grew hers with great success in a container for years.

When one clicks on Sombreuil (LCl, Unknown circa 1880) this rose pops up too???
