For me Quicksilver is a vigorous and beautiful. It is NOT however particularly fragrant, don’t know if that matters to you. I don’t spray and only feed organically and it’s perfectly healthy.

My quicksilver is still young, but it doesn’t seem to grow tall as fast as other bigger climbers. This is as expected since it is supposed to be a small climber. You may want to check its mature height to see if it will be tall enough to cover the top of your arch.

I think it’ll look beautiful. Mine is grafted and in shade and growing so much . I’m very excited for spring !

Performance of particular varieties does vary regionally, look for information about how Quicksilver has been seen to do in whatever climate area you are located in.

Sumera where are you located? Region definitely makes a big difference on how a rose grows and performs. Here in North Alabama my Quick silvers have grown to 6 feet on their first season grafted from palatine and the own roots maybe 4 feet so far. They would certainly look wonderful and cover that arbor.

Here is one 8 months after being planted

I’m in Houston zone 9a and I wish to buy a grafted one since they seem to do well for me ☺️.

Thank you so much for the valuable information and advice I appreciate it so much. I will definitely update once I plant it.
