What Growers Notice

Notes, Photos, and Shared Experience

Read the overview first, then look through shared photos and real grower notes to get a better feel for how this rose behaves.

Overview

Bears rich yellow flowers, which pale over time. Their formation is most pleasing, having a neat outer ring of petals enclosing an informal group of petals within. There is a strong, wonderfully rich fragrance with a hint of lemon. It forms a bushy and nicely rounded head, with rather shiny foliage.
