A truly great rose. For years, five siblings of Northern Yellow were toughing it out in pots while the garden was being shaped. Protection in winter was nowhere to be seen. Winters and springs are anything but forgiving. Yet, Northern Yellow persists and thrives, brightening up wet and/or cold summers with its semi-double, light yellow flowers with their elegant, strong scent (!). Never sick, beautiful leaves, and good repeat until the frosts provided there are adequate nutrients available. Given how compact it is, and all the other qualities it has (incl. petals dropping of cleanly), I think this one would make a great rose for mass planting.

Northern Yellow is a very healthy and hardy shrub which is repeat flowering. It was bred by Rolf Sievers of Germany and is classified as a francofurtana (gallica). It resembles more a cluster-flowered shrub though its hardiness must have been inherited from the francofurtana parent.
A most useful rose especially for northern gardens.

Someone should send it to Canada. They need yellows.

Now growing its second season in my garden in southern Finland, this rose is very floriferous and healthy. The buds have good and opened flowers average rain resistance in this very rainy summer of 2015.
