Hybrid Bracteata.  

Yellow.  Moderate fragrance.  26 to 40 petals.  Average diameter 2.25".  Medium, full (26-40 petals), borne mostly solitary bloom form.  Occasional repeat later in the season.  

Medium, spreading.  Medium, glossy, medium green foliage.  

Height: 2' to 3' (60 to 90cm).  

USDA zone 6b through 9b (default).  Can be used for beds and borders, container rose, cut flower, garden, landscape or specimen.  Remove spent blooms to encourage re-bloom.  Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that.  

Per "official Sequoia documentation" the seed parent of this rose is Mr. Moore's 1-72-1. Kim Rupert
