Enticing Yellow Shrub Roses

by Charlie Nardozzi


Yellow is a coveted color in roses, especially in shrub roses, with their carefree growth habit and ever-blooming nature. Now gardeners have two new choices from a series of roses called Easy Elegance introduced by award-winning rose breeder Ping Lim at Bailey Nurseries.

‘Tahitian Moon’ (Rosa ‘BALoon’) features fully double, yellow blossoms on an 8-foot-tall bush adorned with dark, glossy foliage. This shrub can be trained as a climber in warm regions. ‘Yellow Submarine’ (Rosa ‘BAline’) has clusters of lemon-yellow blossoms that age to creamy white on a 2- to 4-foot-tall shrub. Both shrubs are disease resistant and hardy to USDA zone 4.
