John Cabot

1978

A Kordesii shrub developed by the Canadian Department of Agriculture, 'John Cabot' is an example of the work breeders are doing to create hardy, vigorous roses for the landscape. The medium-red, scented, double flowers are produced freely in late spring, then sporadically during the rest of the growing season. This shrub, with long arching branches that allows it to be used as a climber, has pale green foliage that makes a soft contrast to the flowers. It is quite disease resistant. There are so few red climbers among the old garden roses that we feel this newcomer may fill a real need in the landcape.
