Here's a color combo that is rarely seen in climbing roses. Deep, smoky orange roses are streaked in creamy yellow and feature a soft blush of coral with hints of purple in the mix. Tropical Lightning is an outstanding exhibition-quality variety that bears nicely pointed blooms, and plenty of them. From late spring to fall, abundant clusters of 3-4 double roses appear on the strong, easy-to-grow plant. Flowers are fragrant and make a nice container planting or privacy screen. Plant at the back of a sunny border as a bold accent to shorter yellow-, white- or purple-bloomed perennials. Good for cut-flower arrangements and bouquets, too. Rosa 'ORAlodsem' PPAF
