Julia Child

2006 AARS Winner - Just before our wonderful American icon left us, she selected this exceptional rose to bear her name.  Julia loved the even butter gold color & the licorice candy fragrance.  Yet it wasn’t just the old-fashioned blooms that inspired the recipe.  The perfectly rounded habit, super glossy leaves & great disease resistance finish off the dish.  A right & proper honor for a dear friend.
