2020 Rose of the Year

Show Your Stripes Rose

It’s officially 2020, which means I can finally tell you about the stunning grandiflora that I’ve fallen in love with. Jackson & Perkins sent me a brand new, previously unnamed rose last year to test out and let me tell you: this is one of my favorite roses I’ve ever grown. It’s art in the garden.

Show Your Stripes is a two-toned pink and white rose (and can even look purple in some lighting) and every bloom looks hand painted. No two roses look the same. The blooms are about 3.5″ inches and smell sweetly of citrus. I planted mine along my front walkway to greet guests upon arrival. The buds have that fantastic classic rose shape. Just look at how perfectly the rose opens in the photo above!

Jackson & Perkins named Show Your Stripes the 2020 rose of the year and it’s easy to see why! Not only is this rose stunningly beautiful, but also disease resistant. I haven’t had any problems with mine in the past year. It’s been an easy keeper. So far it’s fairly compact at about two and a half feet tall.

Show Your Stripes is now available here. If you’ve never ordered from Jackson & Perkins before, know that you can order all winter long and they will ship your plants at the appropriate time for your zone, which means order away before it sells out!

  2. […] I was actually not expecting this! I was sure that Golden Celebration would open first but Show Your Stripes pulled ahead for a last-minute win, opening a day before Golden Celebration. This lovely rose was Jackson and Perkins’ 2020 Rose of the Year. Show Your Stripes greets my guests at the street and smells absolutely incredible. I love how often I see joggers and folks walking their dogs quite literally stop to smell this rose. You can read all about Show Your Stripes here. […]

  3. […] beauty lives in my front yard, greeting my guests with all her glory. She sits next to Show Your Stripes. Both are only a year old but are doing marvelous, with healthy foliage and no signs of disease. […]
