Jude made it through our polar vortex winter, January 2019, with temperatures down to -26 degrees F.

Is your Jude grafted or own-root? I had 4 Jude as own-roots that died after 2 zone 5a winters in Chicagoland. I love the scent, and I'm considering if I should try again as GRAFTED on Dr. Huey.

My Jude is grafted and planted in 2017, purchased from DA roses, but I also just put in this summer 2019 two bands near it that are own-root and I'll see if they make it through the winter. I'm near Madison WI zone 5a. I also put a half bag of mulch on it after it freezes to winter protect.
Update June 2020: The two own root bands didn’t make it over winter. I don’t know if it’s because they went right into the ground and weren’t potted up, or if own root are too fragile for my climate.

Hi all,
Thinking about this rose as a climber. Four feet wont cut it, anyone get more length from it?

I wouldn't recommend growing it as a climber, the stems are stiff and not very workable

I have seen this growing at the rose garden in Portland, Oregon as climbing a pillar. Must be at least 8-10 feet and looks spectacular. I'm growing mine on a fence trained into the usual fan shape for climbers. The fence is five feet tall and I'm sure it will easily go beyond that. I'm in southern California, zone 10b.

This can be grown as a sort of climber, like many of the Austin roses, but really isn't a "climbing" rose - it is probably best described as a shrub - does not behave like a true climber with long main shoots. Basically, like any vigorous shrub, you can restrict pruning and train it to climb up somewhat. It will take longer to achieve 8 or 10 feet than a true climber. But, that can make a really fine plant, if you want to devote the space and effort to it.

Of the Austin roses that can be easily used as climbers, I have not found this to be all that vigorous, and suits me best as a bedding rose. The fragrance is about as strong as any other top fragrant rose, and is probably the most fragrant of any Austin rose. (the manager at David Austin's nursery in Albrighton told me he considers it to be the most fragrant of all roses. Fragrant Cloud and Double Delight to me are strong competitors, but it is a tough contest!)

Thanks Plazbo. The patent drawing shows prickles. I’ve deleted “thornless”.
