    This is a floriferous desert rose that produces clusters of 3 or more blooms on a single stem. The blooms start as light canary yellow. As the blooms get older, the color starts to turn light to darker pink with yellow undertones. It is quite a beautiful sight when this plant has canary yellow and pink blooms at the same time. This is supposed to be a Thai hybrid that has been mass produced but still is somewhat uncommon in the U.S. at this time.
