    You have some nice ones there. The Lemon Spice is quite pretty. I lost mine because of a late, hard freeze a few years ago. I would like to replace it. It had such nice flowers and a strong, lemon fragrance. Thanks for the look.

    Sara Ann - I think your Sunsprite is the prettiest rose!!! I would love to get it...but it's too much of a shortie. HMF says only 2 feet tall.

    Brittie - lovely yellows! I especially like your Golden Fairy Tale!!

    Lemon Spice is one I've had my eye on for a while because I'm a sucker for fragrance. I had its sport Sunday Lemonade, but it died on me. I wonder if Lemon Spice can take heat? That's the grim reaper that gets that plants in my garden.

    Beautiful yellows everyone! I just realized that I do not have that many yellows lol. Its weird because I really like yellow flowers!

    Teasing Georgia

    Marechal Neil

    Crown Princess Margaret ..the first year I had her she was yellow! The next year and ever since, she is more orange sherbert colored. I have 2 and they both did that here.

    The Poet's Wife

    Okay this is a pic of The Poet's Wife with a Saddleback Caterpillar on it. If you ever see one of these, Never ever touch it! Get a stick and knock it off and squish with your shoe or into a cup of soapy water. Those spines on them stab into you and you will have burning pain for an hour at least! They like all roses lol.

    Henry Very nice! It seems like magic to me that people can make new roses. You're like Harry Potter (but real) as far as I'm concerned. lol

    Kordes Sunbeam

    bought it at Lowe’s and this is the BEST rose I have as far as BS goes. And it’s a mega reblooming machine as long as you keep it deadheaded. Our heat and humidity and full on sun didn’t phase it last summer

    the only drawback is there is no fragrance and it’s super thorny.

    it looked like this is March when I bought it

    Beth - I've never seen so many deep yellow roses before! My favorite is Buttercream!! I love the name too. :)

    Sara-Ann - it does? Hmmm....maybe I should add it then. Think, think. :)

    I'm not a big yellow fan but I do grow two. They are some of my favorites in the garden.

    Witchy, Rose of Hope, what a fabulous name for a beautiful rose.

    Ken, your Molineux is gorgeous. I ordered mine after seeing your beautiful rose. Thanks for being such a good enabler. Your Sheilas Perfume is so unique.

    So many gorgeous yellows. I think they are the color that makes the garden glow.

  • 8 years ago

    Ken - I can't wait to get my Sheila's Perfume - yours looks wonderful!!

    Carol

  • 8 years ago

    I love your Molineux, too, Ken. I didn't realize its color could be so deep and rich, plus its many petaled look is so luscious.

    Kristine, I agree that yellow really makes a garden seem more alive. I don't grow very many yellows, even though I love the color. When some are huge plants, it doesn't take many for the glow. They do stand out. Diane

    Caramel Antique is yummy and the form of Morden Sunshine is really special.

  • 8 years ago

    Sara Ann, I meant to comment on your yellow roses. I especially liked Lemon Spice (color is like Jude the Obscure), and Michelangelo. I didn't know M was a yellow. It's gorgeous, and I'm going to check it out right now. Thanks for posting the color threads. I'm really enjoying them. Diane

    Yellow roses are my favorite color! As someone said above, they stand out in the garden and just look so darned cheerful!

    Here are my yellows:

    Berolina--(HT)--she's a tall one!


    Sweet Diana (mini)l--a cutie!


    The Pilgrim (Austin climber)--stingy bloomer, but lovely blooms


    Well Being--modern shrub, lovely blooms; flushed reddish edges as it starts to open, then becomes all yellow.


    Elina (HT)--tall and wide


    Ghislaine de Feligonde--(Rambler/Hybrid Multiflora/Hybrid Musk)--sometimes she gets some pinkish shades in there also.


    Jeri Jennings (hybrid musk)--too bad she has so much trouble with BS.

    Molineux--(Austin)--yellow here, but more often he has apricot highlights.

    I think that is about it. Hope you enjoyed the yellows.

    I LOVE the Caramel Antique!!!! Nanadoll, is it healthy and a good bloomer? Does it get tall for you? It seems hardly anyone posts on it, but WOW!

    Ghislaine de Feligonde is another I really like and am considering switching out Phyllis Bide for it on my ARE order, but ARE lists it as a once bloomer. Does anyone have their plant that can comment if that's true?

    I only have one yellow, but it's mesmerizing. I'm hoping to add a couple more.
