Notes

'Gilded Sun' rose (Rosa 'Gilded Sun') is a shrub for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Medium yellow, fragrant blooms open from early to late summer and attract bees. Alain A. Meilland bred it in 2016. The upright habit and dark green leaves suit a mixed bed.

Pairs well with Buckeye Belle peony, Green Velvet buxus, and Ornamental onion.
