Gilded Sun™ Potted Tree Rose

Rosa ‘MEIglare’ PP 30,649 Gilded Sun™

Gilded Sun™ is a floribunda rose introduced in the U.S. by Star Roses (Meilland) in 2017. Its large, glowing golden-yellow blooms, often with a hint of apricot toward the center, are held in clusters and exhibit excellent color retention. The flowers carry a moderate fragrance and repeat through the growing season against a backdrop of glossy, dark green foliage. With a compact, upright habit and strong disease resistance, Gilded Sun™ is a striking choice for beds, accents, or mixed plantings.
