Registration name: JALgrad

Bred by Brad Jalbert (Canada, 2004).
Introduced in New Zealand by Amoré Roses in 2016 as 'Graduation Day'.

Mini-Flora, Patio.  

Apricot or apricot blend.  None to mild fragrance.  41 petals.  Average diameter 2".  Large, very full (41+ petals) bloom form.  Blooms in flushes throughout the season.  

Medium, bushy.  Medium, glossy, dark green foliage.  

Height: up to 20" (up to 50cm).  

USDA zone 6b through 9b (default).  Can be used for beds and borders, container rose, cut flower or garden.  Remove spent blooms to encourage re-bloom.  Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that.  

Very double frilly bloom, much like an old garden rose; highly polished foliage, redish when new. Brad Jalbert, 2000
