I'm trying to plant a yellow rose in memory of my sister in law. I
planted a Buck shrub rose, Golden Unicorn. It is more of a peach
colour than yellow. I looked on the helpmefind website and many of
those roses that they listed as yellow looked more pink or peach to me.

I would prefer an easy to care for rose, but if a hybrid tea is the
only thing that will give me a true yellow colour so be it. Can anyone
make some suggestions?

If you don't mind something a bit large, 'Graham Thomas' is a nice
yellow. 'The Pilgrim' is another Austin that is pure yellow (with a bit
of white around the rim). I also like 'Mermaid' which is a rather large
climber and is a pale yellow.
