Rise Up® Ringo Climbing Rose

Why Rise Up® Ringo Climbing Rose?

A Climbing Rose That Actually Earns Its Space

Rise Up® Ringo® (Rosa x 'ChewGateway') is exactly the kind of climbing rose gardeners dream about: double golden-yellow flowers lit up with a bold, bright red eye, blooming nonstop from early summer through fall on tidy, disease-resistant canes. Bred by award-winning UK rosarian Chris Warner and introduced through Proven Winners® ColorChoice®, Ringo took home the Warsaw Rose Trials Photographers Award and the Australian National Bronze Medal, which is to say the experts love it as much as home gardeners do.

Key Features

Two Plants in One

What makes Rise Up® Ringo® especially appealing is its flexibility. Train it up a trellis, fence, or garden arbor and it will weave upward in a dense, controlled column of blooms. Skip the support structure and prune it back each spring, and it behaves as a compact, mounding shrub standing 3 to 5 feet tall. Either way, the glossy green foliage stays remarkably clean throughout the season, showing strong resistance to the black spot and powdery mildew that plague less-resilient varieties.

Color That Carries All Season

The flowers themselves are the main event: fully double, about 2 to 3 inches across, with warm golden-yellow petals radiating out from that unmistakable red center eye. The moderate fragrance is pleasant without being overpowering, making it a welcome addition near seating areas, entry paths, or garden gates. Because the plant blooms on new wood continuously, there is no waiting for a once-a-season flush. New buds appear as old ones fade, keeping color going from early summer right up until hard frost.

Landscape Uses

Landscape Uses

Rise Up® Ringo® works equally well as:

• A vertical accent on a trellis or arbor
• A flowering hedge along a fence line
• A container specimen on a sunny patio
• A mid-border focal point

Its compact scale, topping out around 5 feet, makes it appropriate for smaller yards where a traditional climbing rose would quickly get out of hand. Plant several in a row to create a living privacy screen that delivers both structure and seasonal color, or use a single plant to frame a doorway or mailbox post with year-round interest.

Why Ringo Belongs in Your Garden

Why Ringo Belongs in Your Garden

If you have tried climbing roses before and found them demanding, Rise Up® Ringo® offers a genuinely different experience. The disease-resistant foliage means less spraying, the continuous bloom habit means no fussing over timing, and the manageable size means you stay in control of the plant rather than the other way around. It is a hardworking rose that rewards even modest attention with an exceptional show.
