Teasing Georgia® David Austin® English Climbing Rose

Radiating warmth and classic English charm, Teasing Georgia® is one of David Austin's most admired climbing roses. Introduced in 1998, this award-winning variety is celebrated for its breathtaking two-toned blooms, exceptional repeat flowering, and delightful Tea Rose fragrance. Whether trained over an arbor, climbing a wall, or growing on a pillar, Teasing Georgia® brings timeless elegance and luminous color to the garden.

Its magnificent large, deeply cupped rosette blooms open in a rich, golden yellow center while the outer petals gracefully fall back and soften to the palest buttery yellow, creating a stunning two-tone effect. Each flower is packed with approximately 110 petals, giving the blooms the luxurious fullness that has become synonymous with David Austin roses.

Teasing Georgia® produces generous flushes of blooms throughout the growing season, covering its graceful climbing canes with spectacular flowers from late spring through fall. The blooms are complemented by a lovely medium Tea Rose fragrance, adding warmth and sophistication to outdoor living spaces.

With its vigorous yet manageable climbing habit, healthy foliage, and reliable repeat flowering, Teasing Georgia® is an outstanding choice for arches, pergolas, obelisks, pillars, walls, and fences where its abundant blooms can be fully appreciated.
