Anika™ Hybrid tea rose PLAhasdor – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cutting
Golden blooms and hybrid tea form make Anika™ a precise choice where flower quality and high-centred bud presentation are central to premium container lines and exclusive finished product programmes. As own-root pharmaROSA® NEONATAL material, it supports long-term stock stability, predictable regrowth and homogeneous stands for scalable nursery and wholesale production. Medium vigour and upright structure suit bush-trained formation with 3–5 framework canes, optimising 5–7 L premium container production and reliable cut stem output. In typical UK nursery systems, its hardy framework performs consistently in colder, exposed regions with good winter and wind tolerance, aligning well with national distribution. Medium maintenance and disease resilience support realistic crop protection strategies without over-commitment of labour, while semi-double, high-centred flowers with remontant flowering provide a dependable second flush to sustain marketable flower density across the season. The development arc from root establishment through structural build-up to full ornamental value over three seasons fits planned scheduling for thematic rose gardens, show-collection supply and retail-focused premium hybrid tea programmes. Own-root longevity and regeneration secure a sustainable propagation base, aligning with collection maintenance and long-term credibility for professional partners.
