I received this rose (most likely this rose) mislabeled from David Austin Roses. They suggested it's Lady of the Lake and based on habit and flower I agree. Now I need to figure out what to do with a rambler. How are they different than a climber? It makes the most beautiful flowers and I'd like to keep her happy but I don't have a large area for a rose to just sprawl. Can I attach her to a trellis?
Yes. Absolutely. A rambler has very flexible canes that can be tied into whatever you'd like. You can wrap it around poles, attach to a trellis, cover a small pillar or treat it like a climbing rose.
