Roses

This garden variety of Rosa Multiflora produces a continuous spectacle of flowers throughout the year and is commonly known in the Cape as Seven Sisters, a rose that had long been cultivated in Japanese and Chinese gardens before it was introduced to Britain at the start of the 19th century. However it is not the same as the Seven Sisters in Britain, so is therefore still remaining as an unidentified form of Rosa Multiflora.

It has a carefree growth and is a vigorous rambler that can grow to 3-5m high … and generous production of flowers, which have a very lovely sweet fragrance.

The newly opened flowers are dark shocking pink, and the older flowers almost white, so there is always a variety of shades on the plant, especially as the flowers are long lived.
