Lemon Drop is an old-fashioned miniature rose with bright yellow flowers. Each flower has up to 35 petals and will create a splash in the Summer garden and containers. Yellow is a sought-after color in roses and Lemon Drop's color intensifies as the weather cools, the blooms have a slow, attractive fade. With its good vigor and attractive habit, this miniature rose is a great choice for front borders, accents in rock gardens, in planter boxes and containers. It will add charm to your garden and requires very little space. These bare root roses are shipped in the spring, allowing you to plant them while they are still dormant.
