Rambling Rose 'Ramblin Red': Radler's Carefree Climber

Introduced in 2001 by Bill Radler, 'Ramblin' Red' (also known as RADramblin) brings the carefree revolution to the rambler class—traditionally once-blooming, disease-prone, and massive. This modern rambler repeats reliably, resists disease, and stays manageable at 8-10 feet.

Botanical Profile

The flowers are a clear, bright red, semi-double, borne in massive trusses that cover the flexible canes in June, then repeat in smaller flushes through summer. The foliage is clean, glossy, and highly disease-resistant. Traditional ramblers bloom once on old wood; 'Ramblin' Red' blooms on both old and new wood, a genetic breakthrough. It can be trained on trellises, fences, or allowed to scramble as a ground cover. For the gardener who loves the romantic cascade of a rambler but hates the maintenance, Radler has delivered a red revolution.
