Recommend a climbing Rose please!

I'd like to have an old-fashioned cottage garden looking climber with smallish, pinkish flowers and long flowering period.

Good disease resistance is a must, scent is not that important.

The plant can be quite vigorous as it has plenty of wall and fence to spread on.

I have a favourite I've seen near our previous house, tinies, cutest pink flowers all summer and autumn romantically growing a bit here and there over a fence- it's lovely. Something like that.

Thanks!

 

Technically a repeat flowering rambling rose, but Lady of the Lake fits your description I think @Selleri

It is romantic and old fashioned in a good way, vigorous, healthy, good for pollinator and smells really nice.

 

Have a look at Cecile Brunner, which has tiny exquisite buds and clusters of small pink flowers and The Albrighton Rambler with lots of very double small pale pink flowers. They both repeat flower and are charmingly cottagy and old fashioned looking. They are both vigorous and will cover a wall.

 

The climbing rose, Mary Delaney is pretty, repeat flowers and is almost thornless. Its flowers are bigger than the two I mentioned above.

 

Thanks very much all, I hadn't really thought of ramblers as I thought they don't repeat flower. Learning!

Lady of the Lake is heading the leaderboard just now but that's likely to change several times when I dig in deeper into the world of Roses.

 

My go to for climbers is always Ghislaine de feligonde its is apricot but does fade to a light pink in strong sunshine, they is a more pink version but its difficult to come by .

Blush noisette and New dawn are worth a look .

 

Some ramblers do repeat. The older ones don't.

I have those three, @Perki. Blush Noisette is more of a shrub than a rambler, she's on an obelisk.

 

Lady of the Lake has been blooming very well for me @Selleri and has been a great rose all around. I am abroad at the moment but there were still a few blooms when I left. It seems to be very happy, quite vigorous and forming a cloud of branches rather than only going straight up. I nearly got Gislaine before that but - based on online videos - found Lady of the Lake to be a bit more refined, especially regarding the foliage. I considered Blush Noisette too, but I am glad with my final choice. Regarding The Albrighton Rambler, I have heard very mixed things about its performance but it sounds like it's doing well for @Busy-Lizzie

 

That's interesting to know @Busy-Lizzie I've just bought blush noisette bare root , it don't know where I am putting it yet so I'll see how it grows in a pot first . Were thinking of - lilac bouquet - instead of Blush Noisette so another one to look for @Selleri

I do have Generous gardener beautiful rose can get large but a bit shy flowering for me. Think Busy lizzie has already mentioned Mary delany my 1 year plant has done very well filled out and grown far better than Iceberg planted at the same time, the flowers aren't small but not big either its been very healthy

 

Last year I saw Phyllis Bide in an open garden which smelled lovely!
I also have Francis E Lester which is a rambler so has one long flush of flower followed by bunches of hips. It has a nice scent and doesn't get much disease.

 

I have Blush Noisette. Not the tallest climber, by any means, but if you are looking for willingness to please it’s a winner. Flowers from May to December. Rot proof. not too thorny.
