Have you thought about the Buck roses? I bought a "Golden Unicorn" in
my search for a yellow rose. The picture on the rose info tag showed
real yellow. It is supposed to withstand extremes in temperature and
has beautiful peachy blossoms with great scent. I will bed it down
with a good blanket of mulch this winter though.
