Rosa 'Julia Child' | Julia Child Floribunda Rose
DESCRIPTION
Rosa ‘Julia Child’ is a floribunda rose that blooms in buttery yellow tones—sometimes with a touch of softer gold as the petals age. The flowers open from pointed buds into generous ruffled forms and arise in clusters throughout the growing season, from late spring through fall. A sweet licorice‑clove fragrance enhances its floral presence, while super‑glossy, dark green foliage frames each bloom with refinement.
Introduced in 2006 (cultivar name WEKvossutono), this rose was selected by the chef Julia Child herself. It has earned accolades including the All‑America Rose Selections award. With clean disease resistance and reliable reblooming, it’s a favorite in beds, borders, and for cut flower arrangements.
