Canadian climbing roses are widely recognized among flower growers for a reason. The abundance of forms and colors in the varietal variety are combined with increased endurance to various adverse factors, and even the most inexperienced amateur gardener can grow and care for it. The Kvadra variety is very popular from this group.

Characteristics and features of the variety

The history of Canadian rose breeding is a continuation of the wave that began more than 100 years ago with the suggestion of the German scientist R. Geschwind. Since 1950, the best breeders of the country have been engaged in their breeding with financial support from the Canadian government itself. The task was not an easy one - to bring out new varieties that would combine resistance to severe frosts and many diseases. And the scientists did it.

Rosa Kvadro is a climbing bush that feels great on any support and can reach a height of 1.5-1.8 m. Due to the good growth of side shoots, it can occupy an area of ​​up to 1 m². Stems are weakly spiked and covered with dense, shiny foliage. Bend well and wrap around the support.

Note! It blooms from July-August until late autumn with rich crimson-red buds. Flowers are collected in clusters, 1-4 per stem, densely double, peony, up to 8 cm in diameter. Gradually open until the core is exposed.

The Quadro variety has high frost resistance and quick recovery after winter. Thanks to its powerful root system, it is able to withstand short drought.
