Camille Pissarro™ – yellow-red bedding floribunda rose – DELstricol
Floribunda production with Camille Pissarro™ offers a compact, upright shrub well aligned to border and edging lines in standard-container programmes, with own-root NEONATAL material supporting reliable capacity planning and homogeneous batches over time. The semi-double, cup-shaped blooms give distinctive painterly colour effects on a vivid yellow-red base with brush-like scarlet and carmine streaks, holding their identity even as tones fade towards cream and raspberry. With a 2–3 L container route and bush-trained, compact release form, the cultivar fits smoothly into retail-focused assortments where reliable garden performance and medium maintenance expectations are central. Rooted cuttings at 3–6 months integrate easily into nursery systems serving public and institutional schemes, particularly where winter-hardy, wind-tolerant ranges need dependable shrub roses across the UK. Own-root production supports long-term renewable stands—roots consolidating in year one, structural shoots building in year two, and full ornamental value typically expressed from year three onwards—helping you stabilise stock and refresh ranges with a recognised, award-winning Delbard cultivar.
