I don't know what kind of ivy you have, but if it is not too invasive, the two can mingle, ivy will tolerate the shade from the rose.

I have a small garden and would love to put this climbing rose on a metal grid fence that has a well established Ivy growing on it. Is this possible? Facing west in sandy soil with a lot of mulch mixed in....

Thanks Kathy. I appreciate that growth can be inhibited by transplanting and I think I could have done a bit more work to improve its new environment before planting. Despite the lack of growth, the leaves are a good, glossy, spot free green. My main disappointment is about the lack of fragrance.Would this be affected by being tranplanted?

Hi, Helen,
Other than not flowering as long as expected, does the shrub look healthy? Are the leaves free of black spots and a healthy green? Have you fed it regularly without overfeeding it? If so, I don't think you have anything to worry about. It is perfectly normal for newly planted trees and shrubs of any type to be a bit slow in growth and flowering in the first year after flowering. Transplanting is a stresssful experience for plants and they do need a significant amount of time to recover. Feed it, water it in dry periods, and prune when and how recommended, and it should do well. Things like black spot and mildew are often difficult to prevent but you can apply fungicides when the growing season begins to combat any problems.
Hope this has been helpful!

I did my research before buying this. According to Dr Hessyon, it's a fantastic multi-purpose rose with a glorious scent which flowers
e throughout the summer. Alas, in its first summer it hasn't put on much growth and although it's flowered, they've all but ended now and only had a faint scent. Is there anything I can do to bring the best out in it?

Climbing roses can be just as fragrant as their bushy cousins -- a fact proven by gorgeous 'New Dawn'. It features big, soft-pink flowers throughout the summer. Be sure to give 'New Dawn' plenty of room to climb!
