Rose 'Albéric Barbier'
Rose 'Albéric Barbier' is a magnificent rambling rose producing clusters of large, fully double creamy white blooms that emerge from soft yellow buds. Each beautifully quartered flower has a classic old-fashioned form, creating a romantic display against the glossy dark green foliage.
Flowering abundantly in early summer, with occasional repeat blooms later in the season, this elegant rose fills the garden with a light, fruity fragrance. In mild areas, the attractive foliage remains almost evergreen, providing additional year-round interest and making this one of the finest rambling roses for covering large spaces.
Its long, flexible stems are easy to train over arches, pergolas, walls and other garden structures, where they quickly create a spectacular floral display. Thriving in full sun or partial shade and tolerant of most soil types, 'Albéric Barbier' is a vigorous, reliable rose that has also been awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.

Getting the most from your new Rose
Where to plant
Choose an open, sunny position with free-draining soil. Avoid planting where roses have grown before or transfer fresh soil to the site. Climbing and Rambling roses can be trained up walls, fences and other supports.
Planting
Roses love organic matter, so mix well-rotten manure, leaf mould or compost into the soil. Water thoroughly before planting. Make a hole big enough not to disturb the root ball. Remove from the pot and ensure the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil. Back-fill soil mixed with a good fertilizer, then firm. Water thoroughly.
Aftercare
Water well until established. Mulching will keep the soil weed-free and moist. For best results feed your roses with fertilizer in spring and again in summer. Remove faded flowers to encourage speedy repeat flowering.
Simple Pruning
Prune your rose in March or before new growth by removing any dead or very thin branches and reducing the height by 1/3 to 2/3 of the previous growth.
