Rosa xanthina (Yellow Rose, Manchu Rose, Canary Bird Rose) is a species of rose native to China. It belongs to the Rosaceae family and is one of the earliest roses to bloom, typically in late spring to early summer.

The Yellow Rose is a deciduous shrub that typically grows to a height of 5 to 10 feet (1.5 to 3 meters). It has a spreading habit and arching canes covered with thorns. The foliage consists of pinnately compound leaves with serrated leaflets, which provide an attractive backdrop for the vibrant flowers.

The most notable feature of Rosa xanthina is its stunning yellow flowers. They are typically single or semi-double, and they bloom in late spring to early summer. The flowers have a sweet fragrance and can vary in shade from pale yellow to deep golden yellow. They are known to attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

After the flowering period, Rosa xanthina develops small, oval-shaped hips. These hips are the fruit of the plant and usually turn orange or red as they mature. They are a food source for birds and can add visual interest to the shrub during the fall and winter months.

Yellow Rose is a hardy and resilient plant that can tolerate a variety of soil conditions. It prefers well-drained soil and thrives in full sun to partial shade. It is also known for its resistance to diseases and pests.

As an ornamental plant, Rosa xanthina is often used in gardens and landscapes for its vibrant yellow flowers and graceful arching growth habit. It can be grown as a standalone specimen or incorporated into mixed borders and hedges. Pruning and shaping can help maintain the desired size and form of the shrub.
