Harison’s Yellow

$21.95

Hybrid Foetida – Shrub (George Folliott Harison, United States, circa 1824)

There’s no need for a calendar when you have a Harison’s Yellow in your garden. Bright and cheerful trusses of deep yellow blooms emerge from the grey of late winter to declare the coming of spring.  Canes arch and reach 5 to 6 feet with ferny foliage and an upright habit, the shrub will produce suckers and form a brier clump if allowed.

This rose has truly reached legendary status. From it’s haphazard origins in Harison’s New York City garden, to its well chronicled journeys west with the Forty-Niners, Harison’s Yellow is truly an American icon.  It is still found on old homesteads along the Oregon Trail, surviving with little water and care. Harison’s has numerous aliases including the incorrect spelling “Harrison’s Yellow”, rosa harisonii, the Oregon Trail Rose, Hogg’s Yellow, Yellow Sweet Brier and the Yellow Rose of Texas.

Note: This rose may require a May shipping date to ensure adequate root development.
