'Julia Bugnet' rose Description

My HMF:

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Notes:

The 2 photos courtesy of T. Kevin Irvin of Wasilla, Alaska. He bought the plants from Washburn Nursery in Palmer, Alaska. Washburn Nursery had obtained the plants from Percy Wright, Canadian prairie rosarian.
Kevin Irvin adds the following notes: 4' to 5' tall 4' to 5' wide, suckers freely. Full flush of bloom throughout July with sporadic blooms until frost. Exceptional hardiness. When other roses die back to the ground, this rose has NO dieback.

This is a sister seedling of 'Nipsya' and 'Lac La Nonne' according to Bugnet's Notes de botanique and as reported in Western Canadian Horticultural Society Journal, November 1986, p. 78.
He kept 'Nipsya' and 'Lac La Nonne' for breeding purposes but did not move 'Julia Bugnet' to Legal when he retired in 1955. He introduced 'Rita Bugnet' and 'Mme Georges Bugnet' at a later date.
