Description

As its name suggests, the Cherry Explosion® ‘Baisikomik’ climbing rose delivers exuberant cherry-red blooms. It can adorn walls, pergolas, and fences, covering them with fragrant, radiant clusters from May until the first frosts. Its controlled vigour and remarkable disease resistance make it an excellent rose bush for gardens, terraces, and patios.

The Cherry Explosion® ‘Baisikomik’ climbing rose is a creation by the renowned grower Alain Meilland which was introduced by Meilland International in 2023. This variety is derived from the Oriental Peace® ‘Baipeace’ rose, another variety celebrated for its exceptional qualities. It has already established itself as a benchmark among modern climbing roses.

This rose is easy to train and can adorn various supports. Its habit is vigorous without being invasive, developing flexible stems that stretch up to 2 to 3 m in height and 3 to 4 m in spread depending on the training method. This ample growth enables it to cover an area of around 10 to 12 m², creating a true floral display at height. The flowers are a spectacle in themselves. Measuring 8-9 cm wide, they boast an elegant classic turbinate shape. Each flower consists of around 35 petals of a magnificent, intense cherry-red tinted with luminous coral pink, and a golden-yellow base that adds depth to the whole. Delicately scented, the blooms exude a spicy fragrance reminiscent of aniseed. The flowering occurs in several successive waves from May-June until October-November, making this  one of the longest-flowering climbing roses.

Its foliage is a shiny dark greenwith tough medium-sized leaves are displaying excellent disease resistance, a major advantage for natural gardening. Its deciduous foliage falls in autumn and reappears the following spring. The stems are equipped with thorns, as with most climbing roses.

The Cherry Explosion® ‘Baisikomik’ climbing rose is also a hardy and undemanding plant, thriving in well-prepared ordinary soil. It will delight lovers of red floral garlands. One could imagine it paired with a purple (Clematis jackmanii 'Superba') or a blue (Clematis viticella Perle d'Azur) clematis and Blue Velvet' sweet peas.

Planting and care

Plant your Rosa 'Cherry Explosion' in a sunny position. Roses are tolerant but dislike excessive lime and thrive best in fertile, well-drained soil. They will adapt to any garden provided that the ground is well-prepared and sufficiently rich. To plant your rose, work the soil by breaking it up finely and adding an amendment such as dried blood or dehydrated horn at the bottom of the planting hole. Water generously after planting to eliminate any air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to encourage root establishment.

In late winter, prune the oldest stems back to 3-5 buds above ground (at the lowest point), choosing outward-facing buds for a more elegant habit. Use this pruning opportunity to remove any dead wood and unsightly branches. Prune at an angle just above a bud. Deadhead as flowering progresses to stimulate the growth of new buds.

If planting a climbing or rambling rose near a living tree, the rose's root system will compete with the well-established tree roots. To control watering, here’s a tip: plant the rose in a large container with the base removed, placed at the foot of the tree. The tree roots won’t penetrate the container for at least a year. Remove the container after one year, for example by cutting one side, without disturbing the rose's root system. The rose will have had time to develop a deep root system and will be more resilient.

Roses often develop spots or look unsightly by late summer, but this does not affect their growth. These spots are not harmful to the rose—it’s a natural phenomenon. Follow our advice to address this issue and read our article: Help! My Roses Have Spots
