Climbing rose The Yutersen Rosarium is excellent proof that everything comes in its own time. This beauty was bred in 1977. But then its large flowers seemed too old-fashioned to gardeners around the world. They thought they looked like Victorian ladies' dresses, adorned from head to toe with lush ruffles. Having not received the popularity it deserved, the Rosarium Utersen rose was abandoned for 23 years. And only in 2000, when the vintage style came back into fashion, flower growers remembered the Rosarium Utersen rose. Since then, this climbing rose has only strengthened its position, maintaining the recognition and popularity it has received.
