  • Plant for rainy regions, with very dense petals, increased resistance to moisture. This variety has medium resistance.
  • Continuously blooming roses. Jubilee Celebration is a rose that blooms in waves.
  • An unpretentious rose, suitable for any region of the Russian Federation. This variety needs mild conditions in the first years of growth.

Jubilee Celebration is a rose with a classic, romantic look. Among other David Austin roses, the variety is not very distinguished, they prefer such stars as Mary Rose, Abraham Darby, or William Sheakespeare 2000. But these are well-tried varieties by gardeners, against their background Jubilee Celebration can be considered a relative novelty. Very few Russian gardeners managed to grow it, opinions are still quite contradictory.

The following advantages are noted:

  • Winters well.
  • Flowering is very abundant, not stopping.
  • Amazing flowers, huge, up to 20 cm, bright, glowing. Beautiful laying of petals. Unusual coloration that changes slightly with the weather.
  • Flowers last a long time - up to 10 days.
  • Aphids or caterpillars are indifferent to the variety.
  • It tolerates rain well.
  • Very active flowering. Even those whose rose felt bad and regularly lost leaves noticed that the plant was abundantly covered with flowers.
  • A beautiful rounded bush, even without formation.
  • A bright pleasant aroma that is felt 2 meters from the planting.
  • Strong strong bush.

Cons that practicing florists have noticed:

  • Weak branches in the first year.
  • The stems are thin for such large flowers.
  • Poor slow growth.
  • Small flowers - up to 8-10 cm. They shrink in heat.
  • Early shedding of flowers - a few days after opening.
  • Sensitivity of flowers to dampness and rain. Heat sensitivity (in southeastern Russia).
  • Suffers from black spot, often sick.
  • It winters poorly in the Moscow region, the bark and branches are damaged.
  • Not everyone likes the shape of the bush.
  • The buds look down (lack of young plants).
  • Lost against the background of other varieties in the rose garden.

Important! These disadvantages depend on the individual conditions, care and quality of the purchased seedlings. For example, the flowers look down in partial shade, and in the sun the peduncles are strong, holding large heads perfectly.

Good reviews from those who grew the rose in Montenegro. The main plus of the variety is its luxurious, striking flowers. Gardeners do not skimp on epithets, calling the variety a masterpiece because of the piercingly beautiful buds. Color makes them unique, flowers really seem to glow from the inside.

If the variety "lies" on the conditions, or the gardener is able to provide him with the necessary care, he will quickly become one of the favorites. The bushes are very elegant, lush, covered with flowers, they look amazing in borders or tapeworms. It goes well with the Alexandra Kent variety. Great for landscaping, large and small gardens, and of course very good for cutting.
