About
Introduced by David Austin (UK) in 2002 to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee, 'Jubilee Celebration' is considered one of Austin's finest achievements. Its rich salmon-pink domed blooms, around 10cm across, display a complex fragrance blending lemon zest with a deep fruity sweetness — one of the most nuanced scents among all English Roses. Repeat-blooming performance is excellent, with flushes continuing from spring through autumn. Disease resistance is high, making it a low-maintenance choice for gardeners of all levels. The plant forms a well-rounded shrub naturally and performs well even in containers, making it suitable for terrace and balcony growing. Consistent deadheading maximizes the succession of blooms throughout the season.
