Winner's Circle™ Climbing Rose
Description
Winner’s Circle™ Climbing Rose delivers three seasons of dramatic color from a single vigorous plant — fire engine red blooms that won’t fade in summer sun, burgundy foliage in fall, and bright orange rose hips that carry visual interest into the cooler months. The non-fading red is what wins the name: where many red roses shift toward pink or lose their vibrancy as flowers age, Winner’s Circle™ holds its saturated fire engine red through the entire bloom cycle. Disease-resistant, cold-tolerant, and vigorous across Zones 5–9.
May be covered by USPP #19,310 or other patents. Radwin cultivar.
Non-Fading Fire Engine Red — The Color Holds
Most red roses don’t stay red. They open deep and fade toward pink or orange as the petals age — a gradual disappointment that makes the blooms look worn before they’re finished. Winner’s Circle™'s non-fading red is its defining quality: the fire engine red that opens in summer holds through the bloom cycle without shifting, keeping the plant looking vibrant and fresh from first bloom to last petal. The large 3–5 inch blooms in abundant summer display are as visually impactful at the end of the bloom as at the beginning.
Three Seasons of Color — Summer Blooms, Fall Foliage, Winter Hips
The seasonal progression makes Winner’s Circle™ genuinely distinctive among climbing roses. The summer bloom display gives way to rich burgundy fall foliage that transforms the plant’s appearance entirely — then bright orange rose hips take over as the foliage drops, carrying warm color through the cooler months when most roses have nothing left to offer. Three completely different but equally attractive expressions from one vigorous climbing plant.
Disease-Resistant, Cold-Tolerant, and Vigorous
Winner’s Circle™'s disease resistance and cold tolerance support reliable, low-maintenance performance across Zones 5–9 without intensive spray programs. The vigorous upright habit trained to a fence, trellis, or arbor creates a 6–8 foot display that fills its support structure with color through the season.
