Overview & Description

The John Davis Rose (Rosa ‘John Davis’) is a hardy, versatile semi-climbing rose from the Canadian Explorer Series. It is renowned for its abundant clusters of fragrant, soft pink, double flowers that appear in charming profusion. The delicate, romantic blooms are complemented by glossy, dark green, disease-resistant foliage.

Growth & Size

This variety exhibits a vigorous, arching, semi-climbing growth habit. It is a large plant, typically reaching a mature size of about 2 to 2.5 meters (6.5 to 8 feet) in both height and spread, though it can be trained taller.

Additional Notes

It blooms continuously from early summer through fall. Exceptionally cold-hardy and disease-resistant, it is a low-maintenance, reliable performer for northern climates. Its versatile form makes it an ideal choice for training on trellises, fences, and arbors, or for use as a large, free-standing flowering shrub in borders and mixed plantings.
