A cross between R. wichuraiana and the fine Tea rose, ‘Perle des Jardins’, ‘Gardenia’ is a healthy, vigorous climber that puts on a lush floral display in late spring. The yellow buds unfurl to shapely, fully double flowers of creamy-white with slightly muddled creamy yellow centers. The clusters of blooms are produced on the previous year’s growth. Therefore, this climber should only be pruned after flowering. Foliage is dark green and glossy. The fragrance matches the name.
