| Description | Rosa banksiae
The Banksia Rose is a tough evergreen climbing rose with soft ruffled yellow flowers which appear in Spring. Like Iceberg Roses, it's prized as a disease resistant and hardy rose. It works well as a groundcover rose or a climber when given a support such as a trellis.
The Banksia rose is an incredibly useful and versatile climber or groundcover as it is low maintenance, thornless and tolerates full sun and part shade.

It gets its name from the silky feel of its foliage, which also makes it popular in the cut flower industry. It is a terrific hardy native screening plant that can grow several meters tall and is drought and also salt tolerant. Woolly Bush looks great in the garden with its lovely silver green foliage that appears to be dusted with snow. |
