I love Julia Child. It gives me large gorgeous yellow blooms that can fill a vase. Over the years my front yard has gotten hotter and because of tree removal we are getting a lot more sun. I have moved many roses to the back yard and lost quite a few due to the heat. Julia Child has done very well. It seems to not be bothered by the heat. It is now over 5 feet tall and has long sturdy canes. It is not deer resistant though. This year I was just ready to cut the first blooms. The rose was full of blooms but needed one more day before I could cut them and bring them in to fill my vases full of these gorgeous flowers. The next morning I went out to cut the roses and they had been completely eaten by the deers. Pruned properly throughout the summer and you will have many flushes of flowers throughout the summer. Just remember to use something to deter the deer.

I have been planting Julia Child for a year. It’s one of the best! Very easy to grow, very healthy, and endlessly blooming.

I’ve been growing Julia child roses for years as both bushes and trees and it is truly the best performing of them all! I’ve grown hundreds of different rose varieties and you just can’t go wrong with Julia Child. It is completely disease free no spraying required, blooms her heart out from early spring to first frost, has a wonderful bushy rounded growing habit making her perfect for containers, formal hedges or a uniform standard tree rose. Let’s not forget her strong delicious unique spicy licorice fragrance. I have yet to find any other rose to outperform her, closest thing to it I’ve been able to find is a recent introduction called Violets Pride which is basically a slightly larger version of Julia child but in Purple/lavender colors. Just occasionally prune, feed, water and enjoy. She’s everything a modern rose should be!
