'Let's Celebrate' rose Reviews & Comments

Blooms all summer long. Strange growth. Compact, but strange architecture. Does not hinder it though. Tons of petals in large, tight sprays. Hip height by the end of summer, so about medium height for a floribunda. Slightly more narrow than wide. Healthy in the PNW, and vigor seems good too. Foliage is shiny, dense. Individual blooms are on the smaller side for a floribunda, but they are too numerous and densely packed to notice that.
Would probably make an okay exhibition floribunda if not for the fact that it likes to stem-on-stem a lot. A good thing for gardens, but not so much for exhibitors.
Color is highly variable, but always nice. Scent? Never bothered smelling it so I don't know.

Colour may be highly variable, but on a quick scroll through the photos, white is not an accurate main colour description.

In my experience, I would call the reverse "silvery". Sometimes close to classic white, sometimes burnished with the face color. The face color is the more variable aspect, and it is indeed handpainted onto the reverse color, creating some color bleeding. The handpainting ranges from dark purple to bright violet to soft cerise, and other variations of that color palette that I cannot think of at the moment.
I would personally consider it a "mauve blend" per the way the ARS classifies colors.
