Impressed with Julia Child so far

9 years ago

I planted two Julia Child roses this spring, mainly because of the rave reviews I've read on this forum. I'm thinking if a rose does that well for so many people, I at least have to give it a try. I must say, so far I am liking what I see. She has taken off faster than any of my other bareroot newly planted roses, the foliage looks very healthy and I do believe she is setting on a few buds already. I am waiting with anticipation to see those lovely yellow blooms in a few weeks. Think I'm going to love this one.

I got one a couple years ago and liked it so much I got a second. Blooms heavily, such a pretty yellow, healthy bushy bush. Hope yours is the same.

MIne is an all star. Clean foliage and constant blooms.
It's only been in the ground for less than 3 months.

I sure hope that my Julia child roses start to look like that in three months. I planted mine a month ago and they are leafing out real well but are still small with no blooms.
