Rene Andre is a hybrid rambler in the rose family (Rosaceae) bred by Barbier Freres & Compagnie in 1901. It was introduced in Australia in 1911. Parentage is Rosa luciae Franch. & Rochebr. × L'Idéal
This climbing rose will grow 15-20 feet tall and 8-10 feet wide. It will flower best in full sun to partial shade and fertile well-drained moist soil. Prune after blooming is complete to remove any diseases, dead or crossed canes and to control size.
Coppery pink semi-double flowers with a strong sweet apple fragrance appear mostly singly in early summer. It will occasionally repeat bloom later in the season. The glossy dark green leaves appear on canes with many prickles.
