Pictured here in its 3rd summer, after two transplants across the country. I loved this rose so much we dug it up when we sold our house and transported it across two time zones. Thrived in the desert, and thriving in the southeast. (Both zone 8a) Lovely seashell colored flowers which can pull more pink or yellow depending on how the shrub is feeling that week.

I’ve had Jude for 7 years and he is easily my favorite! Continuous bloomer, smells amazing, grows like crazy.

I purchased Jude the Obscure in the 1990's from Heirloom Rose, the previous owners had several Jude the Obscure roses when my husband and I walked by the roses we fell in love with the fragrance. Its sad that you no longer have them. I am looking forward to coming to see your place, I saw you on OPB today.

I bought 2 “Jude’s” about 25 years ago. They have performed beyond my expectations every year! Even this year with horrible heat and a soggy Spring, they just keep me smiling!
They need very little attention and are disease free.

I planted this rose in 2021 and it didn’t do much for the first two years, but wow. Year three and it has exploded. It’s just gorgeous. Twelve huge apricot-blush blooms and tons of new growth everywhere. I’ll definitely be adding another when I can.
