Cultivar description

About The Pilgrim

The Pilgrim is for gardeners planning height, structure, and a strong vertical rose moment. Its soft yellow flowers, medium, tea/myrrh fragrance, and mature spread matter as much as the support you choose for it.

Cultivar overview

The Pilgrim is a english climbing rose from David Austin. Introduced in 1991, it is best understood through its soft yellow colour, medium, tea/myrrh scent profile, and repeat bloom habit. Its medium, tea/myrrh fragrance is one of the main reasons to consider it for a spot close to people. Repeat flowering makes it easier to plan for more than one moment of interest during the season.

Garden character and use

Use it where a vertical rose can earn its space: along a fence, over an arch, against a pillar, or on a sturdy trellis with room for training. At about 12 feet by 4 feet, it needs a position where mature growth will not feel crowded. Its soft yellow colour gives it a warm, sunny tone that can brighten an entrance or mixed border.

Bloom, fragrance, and care notes

The Pilgrim is strongest for gardeners who care about both scent and repeat bloom. With petal count noted as 140, the bloom has a useful clue to fullness and shape. Give it good airflow, steady watering, and a sunny position so the fragrance and flower form have the best chance to show well.
