Good grief! I'll bet it IS Julia!
Looks just like her! The scent is all wrong, though. Julia has a distinctive "licorice-clove" scent and this is more green apple.
I can't believe our HD would carry such a new rose, since usually all they have are knockout types and old HTs.
The grower is BFN/Berry, in Oklahoma. I looked at their website to see which roses they offer, and Walking on Sunshine was the only one that came close. This one is a creamy yellow. They don't have Julia Child listed.
I also bought a pink rose that day. It was labeled Morden Sunrise, which is wrong. They had red roses labeled Louise Odier, so I thought maybe my pink is Louise. It sure smells like her.

Hmm they don't list Louise Odier but they for sure had a label with that name from their nursery. Something weird here.
mine looks like the Smooth Buttercup, but with thorns.
Now I'm leaning more towards Walking on Sunshine. Hmmm.
