Thrive Lemon Rose almost always displays a profusion of beautiful yellow flowers. The buds and flowers are yellow when they open and then fade to white, providiing a "buttered popcorn" like appearance on the shrub. As one of our customers suggested, the fragrance of the flowers is similar to Gardenia. Like it's cousins the Knock Out Roses, Thrive Lemon is disease and insect restistant. The Thrive Lemon Rose was selected as one of the University of Georgia's Plants of Distinction in 2013.

The plant came to me very healthy and is thriving, But please beware though the rose buds are yellow and bloom yellow they quickly fade to white. And the fragrance is similar to a Gardenia, which is another favorite flowering shrub. I am very pleased with this purchase. Cons A bit pricey the plants on GD, but the pro. They are heathy plants...
