Notes:
  • "It’s appropriate that the floribunda rose ‘Julia Child’ has buttery-bold blooms and a licorice-clove fragrance. Its namesake, Julia Child, a well-known American cooking teacher, author and television personality, would have loved it in her kitchen.”  This 2006 All-American Rose Selections winner produces very-full blooms in dense clusters through the better part of five months. ‘Julia Child’ is heat tolerant, very disease resistant, and will grow to a height of about 30 inches. ‘Julia Child’ was bred by Tom Carruth with Weeks Wholesale Rose Growers in 2004. She has an American Rose Society rating of 8.3 indicating it is a very good garden rose.” --- John Riley, Consulting Rosarian, Kansas City Rose Society.
