I intend to plant a climbing rose that will be on a north facing fence, the fence is five foot high,It receives sun all morning then shade until fivish, then some evening sun, I have two posts, a trellis and a post nearby, I was thinking of growing it up the trellis then along a wire or two to the nearby post, would this work and do you have any comments on the type of rose to plant, I prefer white, any advice

I would put up a thick rope to grow the roses on it will look better than on a wire.
