WaterThe English Rose 'Royal Jubilee' should be watered thoroughly whenever the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, which typically means once or twice a week during active growth seasons, depending on weather conditions. In the summer months, watering may need to increase due to higher temperatures. It's important to avoid overhead watering to prevent diseases; instead, water at the base of the plant, applying about 1 to 2 gallons to soak the root zone. During the winter, reduce watering as the plant is dormant and requires less moisture. Ensure that the rose is planted in well-draining soil to prevent waterlogging.
LightThe English Rose 'Royal Jubilee' thrives in a location that receives full sun for at least 6 to 8 hours a day. Placing the plant in an area with ample morning light and some protection from the intense afternoon sun can help the flowers maintain their color and promote healthy growth. Avoid deep shade as it can lead to poor blooming and weak growth.
TemperatureThe English Rose 'Royal Jubilee' can tolerate a range of temperatures, but it performs best where the average daytime temperatures are between 65°F and 75°F. It can tolerate winter cold down to about 20°F, but may need protection from harsher frosts. Consistent temperatures within this range encourage optimal growth and bloom production.
PruningPruning is essential for the English Rose 'Royal Jubilee' to maintain its shape, encourage new growth, and improve air circulation. Prune in late winter or early spring when new growth begins, removing any dead or diseased wood and thinning out the center of the plant to open it up. Pruning can be repeated lightly after each flush of blooms to encourage more flowers. The best time for major pruning is when the plant is dormant.
CleaningAs needed
SoilThe Royal Jubilee rose thrives in well-draining, loamy soil enriched with organic matter such as compost or aged manure. A slightly acidic to neutral pH, around 6.0 to 7.0, is ideal for this rose variety to flourish, ensuring it receives essential nutrients effectively.
RepottingRoyal Jubilee roses, being garden plants, do not typically require repotting as they are not usually grown in containers. However, if grown in a pot, they should be repotted when rootbound, typically every 2-3 years with fresh soil mix.
Humidity & MistingRoyal Jubilee roses prefer moderate humidity levels but are quite adaptable. They perform well in average outdoor humidity conditions, without the need for specific humidity adjustments.

Life cycleThe Rosa 'Royal Jubilee', commonly known as Rose, starts its life as a dormant bare-root plant or potted specimen which, when planted in early spring, begins to grow roots and shoots. The first stage of growth sees the development of foliage and stems from which buds form and eventually bloom into the characteristic full, pink flowers during late spring to summer, completing the vegetative and reproductive cycles. Post bloom, the roses enter a phase of petal drop and hip development if the flowers have been pollinated. In autumn, the plant's growth slows, and it prepares for dormancy by shedding leaves and retracting resources into the roots. Throughout winter, the plant remains dormant, conserving energy to survive cold temperatures. Come the following spring, the cycle repeats as the rose breaks dormancy and begins to grow again, continuing its perennial lifecycle.
PropogationPropogation time
Spring-Early Summer
The Rosa Royal Jubilee, commonly known as 'Auspaddle', is typically propagated through the method of softwood cuttings. This is done in late spring or early summer when the plant's new growth is still flexible. The process involves cutting a healthy stem of about 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 centimeters) long, which includes two to three sets of leaves. The lower leaves are removed, and the cut end is often treated with a rooting hormone to encourage root development. The cutting is then inserted into a pot filled with a well-draining soil mix, ensuring at least two leaf nodes are below the surface. The pot should be kept in a warm, bright area but out of direct sunlight to avoid drying out the cutting. The soil needs to be kept moist consistently until the cutting has rooted, which can be checked by gently tugging on the stem after a few weeks.
