Julia Child
Floribunda • cv. WEKvossutono • Pat.#18,473
Just before our wonderful American icon left us, she
selected this exceptional rose to bear her name.
Julia loved the even butter gold color & the licorice candy
fragrance. The perfectly rounded habit, super glossy
leaves & great disease resistance finish off the dish.
Consistent, hardy and floriferous in all climates.
Very disease resistant. During warm, humid 2006 2008
conditions, Blackspot will cause some leaf
defoliation, but Julia Child tolerates disease very
well & continues to bloom in spite of leaf damage.

Lusciously lovely, delectable peachy-pink color sets apart this
sister seedling of Sparkle & Shine. They may have their differences
(peach pink vs. deep yellow). But, like most sisters, they share some
likenesses, too. Both are distinctive because of their large showy
clusters, long-lived flowers with lovely color, round bushy super-
flowerful habit, loads of glossy green leaves & consistent dark red
new growth. Buy 'em both & let these sisters battle it out for who's
the best in your garden.
