A very high petal count and a medley of sunrise hues make 'Alchymist' worth seeking out for larger gardens. Give this 20-foot climber plenty of room, perhaps on a pergola or trained across a long fence. The 1956 German introduction will bloom only once in your garden, but its strong fragrance will linger in your memory. Hardier than many climbing roses, this variety will survive winter temperatures down to -30 degrees Fahrenheit.
