Up to 8 feet tall | 12–20+ feet wide
With a sweet lemony fragrance and a relaxed, sprawling habit, Luckenbach Rambler brings a little piece of Texas history and a whole lot of garden charm wherever she grows. This distinctive rose was discovered in the legendary ghost town of Luckenbach, Texas, where her story began before she found her way into gardens. Her pale yellow blooms, edged in soft cream, lend a gentle glow to the landscape, while their fresh, lemon-sweet perfume makes her just as delightful to smell as she is to behold.
Unlike climbers that reach straight for the sky, Luckenbach Rambler has a naturally mounding, spreading growth habit. She can grow up to 8–10 feet tall and spread an impressive 12–20 feet or more, making her a wonderful choice for covering a large area, cascading over a fence, or creating a sweeping, informal display. Give her room to stretch, and she’ll reward you with a lush, generous presence that feels right at home in a relaxed country garden.
Her double, cupped flowers feature 17–25 petals in a soft blend of light yellow and creamy edges. Produced in flushes throughout the growing season, these cheerful blooms return again and again, bringing a welcome sense of continuity to the garden. And with her reputation for being truly Texas-tough, Luckenbach Rambler is an appealing choice for gardeners looking for a vigorous, adaptable rose with plenty of character.
Whether allowed to mound naturally across an open space or trained along a sturdy garden structure, Luckenbach Rambler offers a lovely combination of fragrance, soft color, and old-fashioned charm. Plant her where you can appreciate her lemony perfume and give her the space she needs to ramble, because this Texas rose was never meant to stay small!
Please note: Depending on the variety, it's possible your climber can take longer to bloom than a regular shrub. The old garden saying is "first year they sleep, second year they creep, third year they leap". Some climbers can take a few years before they put on their first blooms, but we promise... it's well worth the wait!

Antique Rose Emporium is in Texas and the December weather can be anywhere from below freezing to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. But our weather is extremely mild compared to the northern United States.
We want you to have the best success possible with your roses and ask that you let us care for them over the winter and receive them at the time that you plan to plant.
Please ensure that you are not experiencing freezing temperatures and the ground is not frozen when you plan to receive your rose.
