Rose - Banksia Lutea

Common Name:
Yellow Banksia Rose

Description:
The Yellow Banksia Rose, known botanically as Rosa banksiae 'Lutea', is a vigorous, nearly thornless climber celebrated for its profuse display of small, double, pale yellow flowers in spring. These lightly scented blooms emerge in cascading clusters, creating a stunning visual effect. Native to China and introduced to Europe in the early 19th century, this rose has become a favourite for its rapid growth and minimal maintenance requirements. Its semi-evergreen foliage remains lush in Melbourne's temperate climate, providing year-round interest. Ideal for covering trellises, fences, or arbors, it brings a romantic and classic touch to any garden setting.
