Perhaps the most charming of the helenaes in my opinion. Clusters of dainty lemon yellow flowers fade into white. The flowers are smaller and better shaped than the other helenaes. Extremely vigorous and very modest growing requirements.

Mine is never lemon yellow, maybe due to conditions?
But it is a very nice and vigorous Helenae-hybrid, that grows easily from cuttings. See my earlier comment.

Perhaps! I haven't seen other specimens other than my own so I can't really tell. It's only a few couple individual flowers within a larger cluster that start off as yellow, but soon fade to white to match it's neighbouring flowers.

No not really, my flowers are more evenly coloured and a wee bit more intense in the yellow colour. This photo is a slightly better representation of what I mean: http://www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?l=21.231172

This rose (relatively quick) grows a lot higher than the presumed 4-6 m. Even in relatively bad and dry soil under a very big oak tree. No winter die-back, diseasefree (untill now) vigorous and generously flowering.
Neighbours are filled with awe. Easy to root from cuttings with no leafs, taken in fall/begin winter and stored in wet sand outside.

Easy to grow on own root.
Easy grabbing hold with hooked thorns and thorned leaves.
