'Royal Jubilee' rose Reviews & Comments

-
My "Royal Jubilee", which I casually bought as a containr plantin early spring, is now sprouting strongly and giving flowers a little bit more freely. They're beautiful, a loose cup similar to some types of peonies, of a nice silvery pink. Flowers are healthy and nice looking until now, and the fragrance is not the strongest but very good, similar to that of strongly fragrant HT "Baronne E. de Rothschild";... a particular, distint variant of "pure rose" fragrance, which I'm not certain about how to describe.. but still good.

I have been looking for Royal Jubilee! Can you tell me where you found it? Or would you be willing to sell cuttings? I’m sorry if I shouldn’t be asking this. I’m new to this website. I had a chance to buy Royal Jubilee a few years ago when Covid was causing all the problems but money was too tight because of it so I didn’t. Still kicking myself. Thanks!!

Member Domenico 67 Is in Italy. You are in the U.S. In the ‘Royal Jubilee’ page, go to BUY FROM (top right), select your COUNTRY - United States, and you could try buying the rose from Garden Valley Ranch in California, or Hummingbird Roses in Michigan.

Sets hips. I bought this rose at a local garden center and it was in bloom. There was a ridiculously long delay in shipping so it sat in the nursery's "holding area" for almost a month. When it finally arrived today, it had a few developing hips.

This rose in my garden has good qualities but also serious problems. The blooms are a lovely shape but there are few petals, so they tend to look a bit tired very quickly, even more so in rainy/hot weather. Repeat flowering is ok, nothing exceptional. The rose isnt particularly free flowering outside the main June flush either, even with judicious dead-heading. The growth habit is good but the leaves are small so whenever the leaves get disease and defoliate, you can very clearly see bare stems all over.

..how long have you had it Magnus? this was not my experience at all.. I found this to be an exceptional rose but only from years 2 and 3 onwards... the blooms were large, scented and continuous flowering.. and really healthy foliage too... do give it a bit longer if it's new to you... I think you will be surprised, but if you've already had it a few years... then c'est la vie is all I can say...

I have had it for 2 years Marlorena, it's in a prime, sunny spot too. I havent seen any improvement, if anything it was better in it's first year! Even if it does improve in it's third year I can't stand staring at it anymore, it's disappointed me one too many times to survive! I've already picked out a replacement...
