Rosa Mme Alfred Carriere - Climbing Rose A beautiful, repeat-flowering, climbing noisette rose with a lovely fragrance, Rosa Mme Alfred Carrière is a large, vigorous, deciduous climbing rose with slender, almost thornless stems and glossy, light green foliage. From midsummer into autumn, it bears, almost continuously, blush-white, fully double flowers, with pretty, ruffled petals and a strong, delightful scent. With its slender, flexible stems, it is easily trained on a wall or pergola, and is so shade tolerant that it’s the ideal rose for a north-facing wall. Healthy and hardy, rose Madame Alfred Carrière holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
