This deciduous shrub features a rounded and bushy habit, reaching a mature height of 3-4 feet with a similar spread. Hardy in Zones 5-9, it thrives in full sun and well-drained, rich, loamy soil with good moisture retention. It produces abundant, full, double-petaled blooms in a cheerful, vibrant yellow, exuding a mild to moderate citrusy fragrance throughout the growing season. Its foliage is lush, dark green, and offers good disease resistance, including against black spot. Although it lacks significant fall color, it continues to delight with ornamental rose hips in cooler months. Deer resistant, this variety is an excellent choice for borders, containers, or as a garden focal point in temperate climates.
