Mary Cookson –
A very healthy and vigorous climber. I bought 2 Altissimo plants 20-something years ago, and they’re big and healthy. The flowers are such a brilliant red, and the bees love the open blooms. It has huge hips in the fall, too. It’s got fairly rigid canes for a climber, and definitely fares better on a trellis than an obelisk. It can also be grown as a very tall shrub.
