Mystery Yellow Rose

20 years ago

Pardon me for the vagueness of this description, but I haven't been able to identify a rose a couple of us bought a few years ago. We'd both like to have it again, both of them have been lost for various reasons.

6 to 8 years ago, I bought a yellow rose, most likely a hybrid tea or floribunda. It was yellow in color, with no additional colors or markings, quite fragrant, 4' to 5' tall, dark green leaves, and long stems. It had 3 to 5 flowers per stem. It was most likely purchased from Jackson and Perkins, though there's a small chance it came from Spring Hill. I've contacted J&P and another rose nursery, they were no help. I'll be able to recognize the name if I see it. I think it might actually be an ancestor of a rose J&P is offering now, called Radiant Perfume, but that's just a guess.
