Rosa 'Meg' is a climbing rose with a strong fragrance. It typically grows to a height of 12' with stiff stems. Its showy apricot blended blooms are semi-double and make an excellent cut flower. It will bloom in late spring to early summer and blooms repeatedly. It can be grown as a shrub or trained to climb. Blooms form on old wood, so prune after flowering is done for the season.
