Get your best "rose" brain working on this problem.
I have seen Rosa 'Rosarium Uetersen' in a rose book. WOW. It is also called 'Seminole Wind'. It is a vigorous coral pink climbing rose from Kordes I believe. Does anyone stock this rose in Australia? And if not, what is the nearest thing to it for planting in Canberra (-7C to 40C). I want lots of flowers, like a wall of flowers, preferably repeating. Planting will be at the back of an 'orchard' garden space so it needs to be a strong "look after myself" rose rather than a "hold my hand" rose. Thanks in anticipation. Helenmargaret.

Helen, "google" it and see what comes up. It might show nurseries which have it in Australia.

Re: Get your best "rose" brain working on this problem.
There are so many roses in the world; if you don't find that one you really want, you can substitute it with half a dozen others. But also, don't forget that roses are tricky things; a rose may look beautiful in the book, but is something else in real life.
A tip: buy that what you see in person, in a real garden. I often wanted roses based on the book info, but when I came into a nursery, I almost always changed my mind because there I saw roses that do grow well in my own climate.
