William's Double Yellow Rose

Hybrid Spinosissima

1828. Bred in the UK by John Williams, this beautiful yellow rose is a very drought and shade tolerant shrub. It sprawls, growing a patch of 1"-2" foot high canes that spread 4 feet or wider. We discovered this rose, thriving since the Gold Rush without human care, grow to as large as 400 sq. ft. This plant requires no pruning or spraying. It is drought tolerant but requires irrigation to get established. Prolific, yellow blooms in May and June on thorny canes.

Note: This plant cannot be shipped and is available only for pick up only.

FGI has located this Gold Rush rose in Forest City, Nevada City and Lake City. It has survived a century in full-sun and shady conditions with absolutely no care. Amazing!
