Rosa 'AUSwalker' is a prolific flowering shrub characterized by its upright growth habit. The flower buds are distinctively pointed, ovoid, and rounded. Each bloom features over 40 petals, displaying a vibrant yellow hue complemented by cream to white outer petals. Some specimens can produce flowers with as many as 170 petals. These blossoms typically appear either solitary or in small clusters and emit a gentle fragrance reminiscent of spice and tea.

With dedication and time, this variety can be cultivated as a climbing rose.

It is important to avoid watering from above; instead, ensure deep and consistent watering. Providing good air circulation around the plant is advantageous, and it is advisable not to plant in areas where roses have previously grown.

In terms of pests and diseases, this variety shows some vulnerability to powdery mildew.
