Jean Cocteau

Only one original and particularly talented rose can be dedicated to Jean Cocteau. Thus, the rose bearing the name Jean Cocteau combines two qualities in itself: generous, abundant flowering, which lasts from May-June until the first frosts, coupled with an extremely healthy, vigorous, almost perfect vegetation. In your garden, just like in fairy tales, a very pleasant, idyllic atmosphere-giving rose awaits to enchant you with its multi-colored talent. From the end of spring to the first days of winter, Jean Cocteau, the fairy-tale rose, blooms and blooms with sumptuous richness in a constant rhythm that does not want to stop.

Its flowers, arranged in clusters of 2 to 7 roses, consist of 25 to 27 open petals, adorned in fuzzy clusters, creating a unique and special effect. This unique rose shape is given special emphasis by an original, new color impulse. This is the so-called “reverse double hue”. That is, the surface of the petal is ochre with orange-pink shades, lighter than the back of the petal. And when the flowers open completely, the stamen of the rose becomes visible, which is so fondly visited by bees and other insects.

The rose named Jean Cocteau is meant to testify to the power of nature. Its strong, regular vegetation forms elegant bushes, the final height of which can reach 80 - 90 cm. Its leaves are beautiful, shiny green and extremely resistant to diseases. It is as if the hand of God reaches down from heaven to bless and protect your garden.

When Jean Cocteau, this wonderful rose variety, appeared on the international competition scene, it naturally did not go unnoticed, winning numerous medals and awards: 2007, Paris Bagatelle, Certificate of Merit; 2008, Monza (Italy) Gold Medal, Rose of the Year and Rose of the Publicists; 2008, Le Roeulx (Belgium) Winner of the Audience Award; 2009 Grande Rose du Si ѐ cle Lyon; 2010, United Kingdom – Best Floribunda Gold Standard. 2014, North Carolina, The Most Magnificent Floribunda Asheville / Biltmore; 2015, Australia – Adelaide, The Most Magnificent Floribunda and Silver Medal; 2017, United States, Rose Hills Gold Medal; 2020 ARTE: American Rose Trials for Sustainability: Local Artist; LABEL ROUGE awarded for its diversity.

Thanks to its many good qualities, Jean Cocteau, this extremely talented rose variety, can become an ornament of your garden in many ways: alone, in groups of 3 flowers, decorating flower beds, but also as a living fence, and even in large pots on terraces or balconies. Alone or in the company of other plants, it stands out and shines wherever it is.
