Rosa banksiae 'Lutea'
Lady Banks Yellow Climbing Rose, a cultivar of the original 'Lady Banks Alba plena' , is a vigorous, shrubby climber that in early Spring is covered with miniature, creamy-yellow, double blossoms.
Sun loving and nearly thornless, it has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's award of merit. It sprawls, so give it plenty of room to spread out -- space enough for at least a 15' diameter and perhaps an arbor to help send it upward. Slightly fragrant.
