Rose - Golden Celebration

Common Name:
Rose 'Golden Celebration'

Description:
Rose 'Golden Celebration' is a distinguished English shrub rose introduced by David Austin in 1992. This variety is celebrated for its exceptionally large, deeply cupped blooms of rich golden-yellow hue. The flowers exude a strong tea fragrance with delightful notes of Sauternes wine and strawberry. The plant forms a rounded shrub with ample, glossy dark green foliage, and its blooms are elegantly poised on long, arching branches. 'Golden Celebration' is a repeat bloomer, offering multiple flushes of flowers from late spring through autumn. In Melbourne's climate, this rose thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Regular deadheading encourages continuous blooming, and annual winter pruning helps maintain its shape and vigor. This versatile rose is ideal for beds, borders, and containers, bringing both beauty and fragrance to any garden setting.
