This rose produces abundant clusters of vibrant, buttery-yellow flowers that hold their intense colour well in the sun without fading.

General Care Tips:
- Sunlight: Thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily to produce its best and most plentiful blooms.
- Soil and Watering: Plant in rich, well-drained soil. Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist. Watering at the base of the plant helps to keep the foliage dry and reduce the risk of fungal diseases.
- Usage: A brilliant choice for creating a striking splash of colour in garden beds and borders. Its compact and bushy habit also makes it an ideal rose for growing in pots and containers. The blooms are excellent for cutting to create small, fragrant arrangements.
