'JALapri', also known as Jalapri, Royale City

When New Westminster, British Columbia's Royal City, approached Brad Jalbert to mark its 150th anniversary, he said yes without hesitation. Royal City™ is a floribunda rose producing large, double blooms in salmon orange to apricot that shift toward light pink in heat, lightly fragrant with sweet and fruity notes, ideal for statement plantings, beds, borders, and pollinator gardens. A long proven performer across multiple climates, rugged and reliable season after season.

More About Royal City™

Royal City™ unfolds from peachy pink ovoid buds into large, double blooms. Thick salmon orange to apricot petals unfurl gradually, their lighter outer edges catching the light as they settle into open flat reflexed blooms revealing yellow stamens at the centre. In heat the colour softens to light pink nearing white, giving each flush its own character. Lightly fragrant with sweet and fruity notes, Royal City™ delivers its warm colour display through every flush of the season.
