Rosa Royal Jubilee has every quality to seduce gardeners or onlookers: breathtakingly large, deep chalices of velvety rich pink petals, a lovely rich fruity fragrance, excellent health, vigor and repeat-flowering qualities. Elegantly held against the lovely gray-green glossy foliage, the semi-double flowers feature an airy natural growth habit and associate easily with other plants in the border. This breathtaking beauty was introduced in 2012 by David Austin.

  • Blooming from late spring until frost, this is an excellent repeat bloomer.
  • Grows up to 5 feet tall (150 cm) and spreads 3 feet wide (90 cm). An excellent choice for beds and borders, hedges or containers. Spectacular when combined with the cool blue colors of salvia, nepeta or lavender. Plant it where you will be able to enjoy its perfume daily: near a doorway, along a path, near your patio or deck. Excellent cut flowers.
  • Best grown in full sun, in rich, fertile with adequate moisture, well-drained soils.
  • Excellent resistance to disease.
  • This lovely rose was named in celebration of the 2012 Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II.
