Their color ranges from deep golden yellow to a more pastel buttery tone as the blooms age.What makes this rose particularly appealing is its continuous blooming habit. From spring through fall, it generously offers wave after wave of golden blossoms. Whether planted alone or as part of a mixed border, its glow lights up any garden space.
