Beautiful Rose

This lovely rose fits in well with our English Old Rose Hybrids, however it has a little of the Leander group in its genetic make-up. This flower shows up in its rather shiny foliage. It is a stunning rose with flowers of an unfading, strong yellow. Indeed their formation is most pleasing, having a neat outer ring of petals enclosing an informal group of petals within. The growth is low and naturally rounded, making it an ideal rose for a position towards the front of the border. There is a rich fragrance with strong lemon tints at first, becoming sweeter and stronger with age.
