Comments
This climber is truly a novelty. It produces clear, almost unfading, yellow blooms of an impeccable Hybrid Tea shape virtually non-stop throughout the growing season. The young plant is soon covered with these refreshing yellow blooms and almost as soon as the petals drop a new crop of even stronger stems is waiting to burst into colour. This continues throughout the season and one can expect this climber to cover the wall or reach the height of an arch or pergola in the first season.  A slight, but distinct fragrance is noticeable when the blooms are cut and used in the home. Obviously such a vigorous rose is healthy and covered with good green foliage. It requires the minimum of garden maintenance. This climber has a tendency to arch its major branches which gives this rose an informal growth pattern when it is planted on its own. It cascades gracefully when allowed to hang over walls, and from pergolas.
