The 'Cherokee Rose' is a climber which blooms once a year, weaving springtime garlands of large, white flowers, cascading through adjacent trees and shrubs. Native to China, Cherokee rose has naturalized across much of the southeastern United States. Be sure that you have plenty of room for it is vigorous, happily climbing into trees upwards of 20 feet. Stems are arching canes with large hooked thorns making an effective screening and barrier plant.
