Description

An All-Time Favorite | All-America Rose Selections (AARS) Winner 1946

Rich sunset tones, sweet fragrance, and perfect form combine to make this the most beloved Rose of recent generations.

Peace is one of the most well-known and beloved hybrid tea roses, and it was named Peace to commemorate the end of World War II. Bred by M. Meilland in France, this rose's development was interrupted by the war. It was sent to the United State for completion. The rose won AARS honors in 1946, the same day that the peace treaty was signed with Japan.

This soft-colored rose has large five to six-inch blooms in yellow edged with pink. As the rose matures, the colors deepen and spread. Heavy, straight stems support these magnificent flowers - ideal for cut flower displays. This rose can reach six feet in height and three feet in width with many large blooms and dark, glossy foliage.

We got a Peace rose from JP over 30 years ago. We have moved on but the Peace Rose still blooms! In the spring and fall. I just want to know one thing. Now that we are retired, & in a new home we are redoing the flower garden, so how can I get on list for another? In this part of the world we have had serious problems w/all roses. However I have been told the problem has passed. I have saved focal place just for the Peace Rose from JP If you buy from J P you are getting the best.

My favorite rose!

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I love your Jackson & Perkins roses because they bring back so many fond memories of my mother planting the rose bushes in our little backyard garden many, many years ago. She loved roses so much that she named me Rose. The Peace rose was her favorite and mine. Thank you J&P for allowing me to continue the tradition!

Gorgeous rose

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I had an elderly neighbor growing up, who grew roses for competition (early in his life) and for hobby. Jackson & Perkins were his favorites. His roses were "gorgeous." He had the most beautiful Peace rose that I have ever seen. I believe he even grew some for trial or test varieties for J&P at some point. He had all of his trophies and ribbons in a special place in his home. Roses brought him great job for 90+ years. I watched him care for roses for over twenty years. His love for roses was passed on to me. Roses are my favorite flower!

Wonderful!

I've had this rose for many years. My daughter bought it for me, and we've enjoyed many years of beautiful blooms, with little-to-no maintenance. It's just the best rose bush I've ever seen.

Choosing Your Roses

Bare root roses are the most common form of roses for spring and early season planting, and come in two types: grafted and own root.

Grafted Bare root Roses
Own root Bare root Roses

Grafted roses, sometimes referred to as budded bare root roses, have roots that belong to a different variety of rose than the shoots. While the shoots will grow into the variety of rose you've selected, the root variety has been specially grown and developed for hardiness, improved resistance to common diseases, and improved resistance to certain weather conditions. The roots on any grafted rose you receive are usually already two years old, so they'll establish in your garden more quickly when planted.

Own root roses are grown from rose shoot cuttings and develop their own root system. Unlike grafted roses, both their roots and shoots come from the same variety of plant.


All Jackson & Perkins bare root roses are maintained in a suspended state of growth in our state-of-the-art wet cooler, so they'll be delivered to you with no foliage or blooms. The wet cooler has a uniform storage temperature set just above freezing and uses a fog system to provide consistent humidity of 100%, ensuring the roses remain fully hydrated and don't exit dormancy before leaving our facility. While you might see some variance in size, even within the same variety of bare root rose, all our roses meet the same rigorous standards of quality.

So, not sure which type of bare root rose you should choose? Don't worry, we've got that covered. We've researched which varieties of bare root roses grow better as grafted or own root, and both types can be planted in the early spring months, so just choose the variety of rose you're most interested in and get planting.

Though you might be surprised or intimidated when you receive a box of bare root roses filled with roots and shoots, rest assured, with the proper care, these little bundles will grow into stunning roses.


Container Roses

Container Roses

Container roses are typically available in 2-quart sizes or larger and come with established foliage that may or may not have blooms. While bare root roses should generally be planted in early spring, container roses allow you quite a bit more flexibility in planting time, from spring all the way through fall in many zones. Fall can be a good season to plant container roses because it allows them enough time to establish themselves before cold or freezing temperatures arrive.

From seed to market a new garden rose can take 8 to 10 years to develop. Every year, thousands of seedlings are grown but only a handful are selected to move into the trial phase. During this time, potential new roses are grown and evaluated in different climatic regions of the country.

When it comes to blooms, they are looking for improved flower form, unique colors, and strong fragrance.
