Rose - The Golden Child

Common Name:
Rose 'The Golden Child'

Description:
Rose 'The Golden Child' is a vibrant Floribunda variety, renowned for its clusters of large, bright yellow blooms that maintain their rich color throughout the flowering season. Each ruffled bloom comprises 26 to 40 petals and emits a pleasing moderate fragrance with notes of anise and apple. The plant exhibits a well-rounded, upright growth habit, adorned with healthy, glossy, mid-green foliage. 'The Golden Child' is a repeat bloomer, providing 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.
