‘Diamond Jubilee’ Hybrid Tea Rose



For the next week I have decided to feature some All-American Rose Selection winners. I have been trying to photograph all of the winners but it has turned out to be not such an easy project. Over the next couple of days one rose from each decade will be featured. Today’s rose ‘Diamond Jubilee’ was photographed at the Heritage Rose Garden in San Jose, California. It is a fragrant Hybrid Tea that was selected in 1947 and seems to be available from a few ‘old’ rose growers. Among other winner that year were High Noon, Nocturne, Pinkie, San Fernando, and Taffeta.
