Below you will find a list of Roses from our plant database that are yellow flowering or have yellow as one of the bloom colors.

Don't forget about roses when you are considering yellow flowered shrubs. A huge movement in rose breeding is bringing pest-free and disease-free landscape roses. To get flowering shrubs that flower spring through frost and are low maintenance is exactly what today's busy homeowners are looking for. New roses can be a great answer. Don't think of roses as just roses; think of them as garden shrubs that also happen to be roses.
This list of roses with yellow blooms is a mix of tried and true Heirloom or Antique varieties that have stood the test of time, contemporary varieties bred for exceptional bloom power and the promising, new developments of trouble-free landscape roses that range from low-growing types to regular shrubs to climbing and tree-roses. Some of them are grafted and some are now being grown on their own roots with new cloning methods to withstand freeze problems encountered in the past. Combined rose interest is having a major resurgence providing the gardener with easy to care for and rewarding plants that you'll be glad you decided to try. Suggestions include: 'Anthony Meilland', 'Aperitif', 'Autumn Sunset', 'Behold', 'Buttercream', 'Cal Poly™', Flower Carpet 'Celina®', 'Charles Darwin', 'Golden Celebration' and 'Graham Thomas®' which are David Austin® roses, 'Hotel California', 'Julia Child', 'King's Ransom', 'Midas Touch', 'Morden Sunrise' for rugged hardiness, 'New Day, 'Oregold', Rugosa or Saltspray Roses 'Persian Yellow' and 'Topaz Jewel', 'Sun Flare' and 'Sunsprite'.
Roses covered with yellow blossoms add a brightness, capturing the sunshine. Yellows and Golds blend surprisingly well with cool colors purple and blue but also with warm colors of red, orange and peach. Roses with yellow blooms look great with green and yellow leaves or needles of variegated groundcovers, ornamental grasses, perennials, shrubs, evergreens, trees and bright tropicals.
An interesting new combination that adds more flower power in the garden is growing the new, compact Clematis vines among other landscape plants. Having Clematis vine flowers sprinkled among the bright blossoms of rose plants makes a lovely, striking display.
