Care

Planting & Growing

Kiss Me Kate™ Rose will grow to be about 10 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of approximately 4 feet. As a climbing rose, it benefits from support such as a trellis, arbor, or fence to showcase its long flowering canes and abundant blooms.

This rose should be grown in full sunlight for best flowering and overall performance. It prefers average to evenly moist soil and should be watered regularly until established, after which it becomes more drought tolerant. It adapts well to a wide range of soil types and performs best with good drainage. Prune as needed in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage vigorous new growth.
