DELéri – Scented Memories of Love – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL own‑root climbing rose propagation material

This cultivar offers a compelling combination of strong remontant flowering, refined fragrance credentials and reliable climbing structure for growers building premium vertical rose assortments. As tray-grown, 3–6‑month‑old own-root material, it supports efficient logistics in nursery systems where scheduling, storage and batch handling must align with large-scale trained climber production. The remontant, candy-pink, rosette blooms with very strong, long-lasting fragrance make it a convincing feature choice for exclusive, space-defining vertical projects and thematic rose collections. Its medium maintenance profile suits trained, staked propagation into the recommended 5–7 L route, where own-root longevity and regeneration underpin predictable capacity for retailer and reseller programmes. Winter hardiness down to H7 and proven performance in colder zones mean dependable cropping and reduced replacement risk even on exposed nursery sites, supporting production for public-realm and institutional schemes where vertical accents must remain reliable over time. The development arc from root establishment in year one through structural shoot build-up in year two to full ornamental value by year three fits UK nursery planning for climbers, enabling clear scheduling of trained product. With medium disease resistance, including good tolerance to powdery mildew and black spot, it supports stable, homogeneous stands in propagation beds and finished blocks, helping nurseries and wholesale partners maintain quality for premium scented climber portfolios while remaining commercially sustainable.

Usage options

Target area	Reasoning
Trained climber for premium retail / reseller programmes	The strong remontant flowering with a plentiful second flush underpins a reliable, visually persuasive trained climber for the recommended 5–7 L route and staked, 3–5 cane release form. Recurrent bloom means retailers can list it as an exclusive, space-defining vertical feature with extended colour and fragrance presence, while own-root propagation gives long-term stability for nursery propagation beds and wholesale stock. This supports predictable cropping and medium-maintenance management in professional rose production for retail / reseller.
Fragrance-led thematic and show-garden collections	The very strong, intense, classic rose fragrance, supported by multiple international perfume and fragrance awards, gives growers a proven anchor cultivar for scented collections and show-garden lines. In a trained climber product path, staked and pre-structured canes in 5–7 L containers provide immediate vertical impact on delivery, while own-root form offers regeneration and longevity for thematic rose garden and collection plantings. These traits allow nurseries to position the cultivar as an exclusive, space-defining speciality in fragrance-led assortments for garden designers and collection-led projects.
Vertical feature for pergolas, arbours and structural frames	Its climbing habit, 2.4–4 m height and dense, dark green foliage create a strong vertical framework ideal for pergolas and arbours when supplied as pre-trained climbers. Staked, 3–5 cane NEONATAL material scales well into a trained climber finished product, where own-root growth ensures stable structure and reduced replacement in long-term vertical projects. This aligns with exclusive, space-defining positioning and supports nursery networks and integrator systems serving public-realm and institutional projects seeking reliable feature planting for public-realm suppliers.
Premium colour-and-form accent in curated assortments	The delicate pastel pink, candy-pink full bloom with lighter, silvery edging and rosette flower form offers a refined, easily grouped colour accent within curated climber ranges. Uniform colour retention and consistent flower size simplify bench presentation and assortment building in 5–7 L trained climber lines. When propagated on own roots, batches show homogeneous ornamental performance and predictable capacity, ideal for private-label vertical rose programmes and thematic rose garden collections aimed at brand-focused retailers.
Cold-tolerant vertical rose for UK-wide distribution	Hardiness to -21 – -18 °C (H7, Swedish Zone 3, USDA 6b) supports reliable performance across the UK, including more exposed nursery locations and northern distribution zones. This robustness combines well with the trained climber product path, allowing confident overwintering of 5–7 L stock and reducing loss rates in wholesale blocks. Supporting growers serving regions where winter and wind-tolerant vertical features are needed, it underpins stable wholesale-scale propagation and stock-building for nationwide nursery networks.
Medium-maintenance climber for efficient production blocks	The medium overall disease resistance, with resistance to powdery mildew and black spot and only medium susceptibility to rust, suits medium-input nursery regimes. In staked, trained production, this supports clean foliage presentation and manageable spray programmes while own-root plants provide renewable growth and long lifespan under repeated pruning and training. The specified medium maintenance requirement aligns well with professional production systems seeking predictable, space-defining climbers that do not overload labour or chemical inputs for large horticultural operators.
Own-root propagation base for vertical-rose private labels	As tray-rooted own-root propagation material, it offers a stable genetic and structural base for long-term programme development, with low variation and strong tolerance of propagation loads. Staked, 3–5 cane training into 5–7 L pots provides a clear, repeatable production recipe, and own-root regeneration supports renewable stock for years, keeping cultivar identity secure for thematic and collection-based brands. This makes it a solid choice when creating exclusive, space-defining vertical features under private-label concepts for wholesale partners.
Collection and gene-bank plantings for scented climbers	The combination of documented parentage (‘Grand Siècle’ × ‘Heritage’), strong scent profile and recorded hip formation (ellipsoid, orange-red hips) gives it clear value in collection, gene-bank and reference plantings. Own-root NEONATAL propagation suits long-term stands where identity, sustainability and regeneration matter, while the trained climber route ensures material can also be diverted into marketable 5–7 L finished stock as required. This dual role supports thematic and show-garden oriented programmes for specialist nurseries and collectors.

Resistance and winter hardiness	Medium overall disease resistance, resistant to powdery mildew and black spot with medium rust susceptibility; hardy to approximately -21 – -18 °C (H7, Swedish Zone 3, USDA 6b), supporting use in colder temperate regions.
Horticultural recommendations	Recommended as a trained climbing finished product from staked, pre-trained 3–5 cane material, with 5–7 L target pot size, medium maintenance needs and suitability for pergolas, arbours and other vertical structural applications.
