Beatrice Krismer – salmon-pink flower-bed shrub rose – Scarman – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL
own-root propagation of Beatrice Krismer gives you a stable, renewable base for nursery-scale container production where predictable quality and long-term planting performance matter. This upright, bushy habit with moderately dense, glossy foliage supports a reliable, mid-sized shrub outline that finishes cleanly in 2–3 L retail containers and can later be shifted to 40–50 litre landscape tubs if required. Double, cup-shaped, cluster-flowered blooms with medium-sized heads and soft salmon-pink colour fading evenly towards creamy edges create a dependable, recognisable finished product for standard garden-centre ranges. The strong, warm tea-like, fruity fragrance adds clear shelf appeal for retail and reseller customers seeking scented shrubs with reliable garden performance. Medium disease resistance and H7 winter hardiness down to about -21 °C provide robust support for production planning even in cooler nursery locations, helping align with supply chains serving institutional and public-realm schemes where winter and wind-tested reliability is important. The remontant, abundantly repeating flowering habit gives long sales windows and sustained ornamental value in stock beds. Own-root structure underpins uniform stands, low replacement rates and predictable capacity, with roots consolidating in year one, framework building in year two and full ornamental value expressing steadily from year three. Moderate maintenance needs and occasional plant protection align with professional protocols, while small, orange-red hips add discreet seasonal interest for thematic rose gardens and collection plantings.
