Cl. Cecile Brunner is a nice pink climber, although I believe it only blooms once a year like the Lady Banks rose. I used to grow both the Cecile Brunner and Lady Banks (R. Banksia lutea -- the yellow one). Both were beautiful, but I think the Lady Banks was more tender and the Cecile Brunner ended up being a better choice for me. My sister had the yellow one and it was spectacular in her yard. And the white Banksia climber is supposed to be very fragrant, whereas the yellow one has no fragrance. But again, they're all once-a-year bloomers.
