Blaze of Glory Climbing Rose

Blaze of Glory is a dynamic climbing rose known for its bold color shifts and impressive performance—often covering a 6-foot trellis in just its first year. Depending on the light, this rose may appear as a rich deep orange infused with pink, a vivid watermelon tone, or a warmer pink as the blooms mature. No matter the moment, Blaze of Glory is a climbing rose that remains consistently striking. Its fully double flowers measure about 4 inches across and appear in large, abundant clusters that light up any vertical structure in the garden.

These blooms aren't just beautiful on the vine—they make exceptional cut flowers as well. A single snip of a cane offers an instant, generous bouquet. The child of Dream Weaver and Dynamite, Blaze of Glory shows excellent heat resistance and sun-fast color, holding its bright hues even during intense summer conditions. Lean in close and you may notice a faint, pleasant musky fragrance that adds a touch of charm without overwhelming the senses. Perfect on pergolas, trellises, and arbors, this climber also pairs wonderfully with clematis, creating a layered tapestry of color and form.

Plant Blaze of Glory in full sun and well-drained soil, providing regular moisture during establishment and seasonal feeding to support vigorous growth and continuous bloom. Light annual pruning helps shape its canes and maintain airflow while encouraging new flowering wood. With its vibrant, ever-changing color, generous clusters, and resilient nature, Blaze of Glory is a standout climber that rewards gardeners with long-season beauty and impressive performance.
