Eden is a dreamy pale pink and cream climbing rose that will be coming to my garden this spring from Heirloom Old Garden Roses. It is a Romantica rose from France. The blossoms are very lush and full. The canes sport large, bright green leaves. Known for its disease-resistance and hardiness to zone 5, Eden makes a wonderful addition to any rose garden. Not being a rampant rose, Eden can be trained on a fence, wall, or trellis. A very beautiful and appealing climber!
