Introduced in 2007 at the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, this hybrid tea rose has bright golden-yellow flowers. It's linked to the North West Air Ambulance, who will benefit from sales. The large beautifully-formed flowers are scented and carried in profusion on a neat bushy plant. It should be pruned from late-winter to early spring, reducing the main stems to 25-45cm (10-18in) above the ground. Remove any spindly or diseased growth. After pruning, apply a rose fertiliser and mulch.
