A proud name within the world of rose breeding is Rose Mont Royal, a true masterpiece of breeder Jan Spek Rozen.
Roses are the most iconic and universally recognized flowers, praised for their beauty, elegance, and rich fragrance. Despite the many offerings, there are only a few that stand out from the crowd in terms of looks and quality. One of these finest is the Rose Mont Royal. Let's discover the mystery of this bright lady.
The Secret of Rose Mont Royal
This white queen bears her name with elegance and grace. But what makes one rose more magnificent than another? The abundance of lush soft white petals and beautiful bud formation is one of the charms of this big garden rose.

Another remarkable feature is her longevity in the vase. Therefore, ideal for bouquets and floral arrangements that require lasting impact, like weddings. Roses are inextricably linked with love, passion, and romance. These roses are not only beautiful but also characterized by their pristine white color. If you choose to have a wedding with this white beauty, you will have a guest of honor who, without words, will enhance the fairytale feeling like no other.
The rose's thorniness is also considered moderate, which is an important consideration for florists and arrangers. The less aggressive thorns make the rose easier to handle and arrange, which increases its appeal in the floral industry.
Portability, Anywhere and Everywhere
Wherever Rose Mont Royal is invited to appear, she will arrive in perfect condition. Rose Mont Royal is grown by Ziway Roses in Ethiopia. The rose is targeted by European and US buyers for different markets. Its endurance during transport, with tall buds and protective sepals maintaining their perfect shape, is another important feature. This aspect of transportability is crucial for international demand and distribution in which this rose does not disappoint.

Productivity as Key
Productivity is an important consideration for growers. The productivity of a rose is essentially what the plant produces in terms of flower yield. For a variety to be viable, especially at high altitudes like in Naivasha, Kenya, it has to produce a significant yield. The Rose Mont Royal variety has a productivity of 200+ stems per square meter, with an average of about 2.3 flowers per plant per month.
This level of productivity is not only desirable but also necessary for farm profitability. For growers, this is a key factor. The yield of a rose plant, especially in challenging climates, plays a crucial role in the viability of a variety.
Mont Royal from Jan Spek is a paragon of horticultural innovation and aesthetic perfection. With its perfect white color, moderate thorniness, exceptionally long vase life, excellent transportability, and high productivity, this rose is an attractive choice for professionals as lovers. As the rose gains increasing international recognition, this reflects the enduring legacy and progressive vision of Jan Spek Roses in the world of rose breeding.
In short, With Rose Mont Royal you have a hit. A timeless choice for bouquets, parties, special occasions, and especially the wedding season and romantic occasions.
