As you can see, I live in Iowa and our winters can be fierce. If you want to grow a climbing rose for anyone in zone 5 or less, your best bet is the Canadian Explorer Roses. This rose is three years old and as you can see it has covered my split rail fence. They do not need any special protection although I do mulch around mine as a precaution.
