Just Joey Rose (Rosa Just Joey)

Also known as

Just Joey Hybrid Tea Rose, CANjujo rose


A glance and sniff of these (literal) Hall of Famers will leave you no doubt as to why they were once considered the world’s favourite rose. 

Visually, Just Joey roses present a stunning peach-hued double-bloom. The shrub’s gargantuan flowers spread up to 12cm in diameter, making them a visual delight left on the bush or cut for a vase. And their scent is just as stellar; each rose blesses you with a heavy sweet yet spiced vapour that’ll lift the spirits of a garden or room.

Canter down to your nearest All Green nursery at Hoppers Crossing or Geelong to see our thriving Just Joeys. Call ahead, and we’ll check they’re in stock.

 Caring for your Just Joey roses 

Just Joey roses are a type of rose that require specific factors to thrive. They need an area with plenty of full sun, as they prefer five to seven hours of direct sunlight per day.

Use well-draining soil, like loam or mulch. Proper fertilisation is also essential – look for an organic fertiliser or a rose-specific blend that includes nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium.

To plant a Just Joey rose bush, begin by tilling or turning the soil. This will help fertilise it and create a looser base for the roots to spread. Once this is done, prepare your planting hole - make sure it's twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. When you're ready to plant your rose bush, position it in the hole and backfill it with drained soil. Water your Just Joey roses regularly for optimal growth and prune them after flowering.

 How do I train my Just Joey rose to climb?

Next, you will need to tie the canes of your rose to the support using soft twine or strips of cloth. Be sure to leave some slack in the ties so your rose can move slightly in the wind.
