Family Rosaceae

The ‘Yukon Sun’ Hardy Rose is a deciduous shrub with a bushy and well-branched habit, renowned for its bright yellow blooms and its high resistance to northern climates. Selected for its exceptional hardiness, it produces an abundance of semi-double golden-yellow flowers in summer that maintain their brilliance even in intense heat. Its dense, healthy, dark green foliage highlights the blooms and contributes to its good disease resistance. Suitable for beds, low hedges, or solitary plantings, the ‘Yukon Sun’ hardy rose prefers full sun exposure and well-drained soil. Easy to care for and undemanding, it is an excellent choice for bringing color and reliability to northern gardens without requiring winter protection.
