This is a fabulous rose, and becoming very popular.  It throws sprays of large cup-shaped blooms of a gorgeous golden coppery-yellow (nankeen yellow) hue, uncommon among roses in general and never before seen among English Roses.  The flowers illustrated measure 3.5 inches across and are very fragrant, with an aroma reminiscent of honey.  The leaves are a lovely fresh green, and although delicate looking, are remarkably disease resistant if kept adequately fed and watered.
