Rosa 'Sunny Siluetta' - Climbing Rose

The 'Siluetta Sunny' Rose is another small climbing rose from the Siluetta series, a line of roses developed in Germany by Kordes for their compact growth as they reach a maximum height of 2 meters (7 feet). They are very floriferous and covered in small flowers for months; their floribundity is matched only by their robustness and disease resistance. Sunny offers us the sunshine of its semi-double flowers with visible yellow stamens, which open in lemon yellow and evolve into butter yellow. Its numerous clusters of lightly scented flowers bloom on perfectly healthy satin green foliage.

The climbing rose 'Sunny Siluetta' or 'KORsilu05' is a highly recurrent climbing rose that appeared on the European market in 2019. Vigorous and flexible, it has thorny stems, reaching 1.80 meters (6 feet) in height with a spread of 70 cm (28in). Its green and satin foliage is exceptionally healthy and perfectly highlights the pretty clusters of 4 cm (2in) flowers in two shades of gentle and golden yellow. It blooms almost continuously, from May to September, abundantly, provided it is not lacking in water. Its flowers are semi-double, with a rather fluffy structure. Their fresh and light fragrance falls into the category of wild roses.

Siluetta roses are suitable for elegantly covering fences, pergolas, or wall trellises. They allow for modest yet sumptuous decorations throughout the summer. They require very little maintenance except for regular watering in summer during periods of high heat and prolonged drought. Mix or combine them with easy-going large-flowered clematis like 'Broughton Star'. They are good companions for paniculate phlox, delphiniums, foxgloves, catmints, and tall gypsophila. This 'Sunny' variety also thrives in large pots, in partial shade, in small gardens, on balconies or terraces, or even as a hedge. In a yellow colour scheme, it can be accompanied by the flowering of a 'Mandarin' honeysuckle or a Trachelospermum asiaticum Chili & Vanilla.
