ABOUT
Rosa High Hopes, commonly referred to as a climbing rose, is a plant known for its distinctive and vibrant floral display. The flowers of this rose plant are a charming shade of pink, usually soft and pastel in tone. Each bloom is large, full, and elegantly shaped, featuring an abundance of petals that create a classic, rounded rose profile. These petals can range from tightly furled at the center to more relaxed and open at the edges, giving a lush, dense look to each flower. The plant itself boasts a generous number of blossoms that appear in clusters, creating a striking visual impact on the vine they adorn. The foliage of Rosa High Hopes is typically a vivid green, forming a lush background that contrasts beautifully with the pink blooms. These leaves are often glossy, contributing to the overall healthy and vigorous appearance of the plant. As a climbing rose, it has a habit of sending out long, arching canes, which are frequently trained on supports to encourage vertical or horizontal growth. This training allows the plant to cover structures such as trellises, arbors, fences, and walls, making it a popular choice for adding a romantic, cascading floral element to gardens and outdoor spaces. The stems on this rose are sturdy, enabling them to support the weight of the blooms, and they are often armed with thorns, which are typical of rose plants. The thorns help to anchor the plant to its support and also provide some protection against browsing animals. Rosa High Hopes exudes a pleasant fragrance that adds another layer of appeal to its already captivating presentation. This scent can attract pollinators, as well as enhance the sensory experience for gardeners and passersby. Overall, the Rosa High Hopes climbing rose is a dramatic and beautiful plant that is prized for its glorious flowers, charming color, and elegant climbing habit, making it a standout addition to any space where a vertical or draping floral feature is desired.

WaterRosa High Hopes, commonly known as the climbing rose, should be watered deeply rather than frequently, ensuring moisture reaches the roots. Aim to water approximately 1 inch of water per week, but this may increase to 2 inches during hot, dry periods. During the growing season, especially in the absence of rainfall, watering should be done weekly. In particularly hot climates or during heat waves, additional watering may be necessary. Use a soaker hose or a drip irrigation system to apply water directly to the base of the plant, slowly allowing it to penetrate the soil and minimize evaporation.
LightClimbing roses like Rosa High Hopes require full sun to thrive, which means they need at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily. The plant will perform best in a spot where it receives morning sunlight, which is less intense and helps dry dew on the leaves, potentially reducing disease risk. Avoid heavily shaded areas as inadequate sunlight can lead to fewer blooms and a weaker plant.
TemperatureClimbing roses generally prefer moderate temperatures and will thrive in a range of 65°F to 75°F. Rosa High Hopes can usually tolerate temperatures as low as 20°F once established, but growth may be significantly affected at temperatures below this point. It's important to protect the plant from extreme cold and frost, which can damage the canes and reduce flowering.
PruningPruning climbing roses like Rosa High Hopes is essential to promote healthy growth, remove dead wood, and encourage flowering. Prune in late winter or early spring, just before new growth begins. Remove any dead or damaged canes, and thin out crowded areas to improve air circulation. The best time for major pruning is after the plant has finished blooming if it flowers once per season, or in early spring for repeat bloomers.
CleaningAs needed
SoilClimbing roses like Rosa High Hopes thrive in well-draining soil enriched with organic matter such as compost and aged manure. The ideal soil pH for this rose variety is between 6.0 and 6.5 to ensure optimal nutrient uptake and healthy growth.
RepottingClimbing roses such as Rosa High Hopes do not typically require repotting as they are usually planted directly into the ground. However, if grown in containers, repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its pot.
Humidity & MistingRosa High Hopes, as with most climbing roses, prefers outdoor conditions with natural humidity levels. They are quite adaptable and do not require specific humidity levels, thriving in the typical range found in most garden environments.
Suitable locationsIndoor
Ensure full sun, ample air flow, and avoid over-watering.

Life cycleThe life cycle of the Rosa High Hopes ('Haryup') begins with seed germination, where the seeds sprout when exposed to the proper conditions of moisture and temperature. This is followed by the seedling stage where the new plant establishes its roots and shoots. As the plant matures, it enters the vegetative stage, producing stems and leaves, and eventually grows into a bush. During the flowering stage, the plant develops buds that bloom into the characteristic fragrant flowers, typically seen in late spring to summer. After pollination, these flowers may produce hips containing seeds, leading to the reproductive stage, where the plant can spread its seeds for the next generation. The plant then goes dormant in winter, conserving energy to restart the cycle with new growth in the following spring.
PropogationPropogation time
Early spring
The most popular method for propagating Rosa High Hopes, a type of climbing rose, is through hardwood cuttings. This is typically done during the dormant season in late fall or winter. You would select a firm, well-ripened cutting from the previous season's growth, typically about 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 centimeters) long. The cutting should have at least two or three sets of buds. After making a straight cut across the bottom just below a bud and an angled cut at the top just above a bud, the cuttings are planted in moistened soil with the lower two-thirds buried and the top one-third above the soil. The use of rooting hormone is optional but can encourage root development. The cuttings should then be kept in a cool, shaded location until rooted, which may take several months.
