As they remain long on the plant, all hues can appear simultaneously. The cultivar blooms abundantly for a period of three to four weeks. In autumn, ‘Veilchenblau’ develops small brown-red hips decorating the shrub into the winter.The cultivar is a robust, near-thornless rambler, growing from 10′ to 20′ in height.
