Edouard Guillot™ – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cutting
Floribunda production with Edouard Guillot™ offers a compact, bushy habit suited to 2–3 L containers, enabling predictable, retail-ready stock for nursery and reseller channels. The remontant, cluster-flowering display in vibrant salmon-pink tones supports reliable garden performance positioning while giving You flexible scheduling of finished lots. Own-root propagation provides long-term regeneration capacity and homogeneous stands, particularly relevant where nursery networks require stable, repeatable batches across seasons and regions in a range that is winter-hardy yet tolerant of typical British wind and cold. With a medium maintenance profile and moderate disease resistance, this cultivar fits standard finished-product workflows, while the development from root establishment in Year 1 through stronger shoots in Year 2 to full ornamental value in Year 3 aligns cleanly with planned release programmes and capacity planning for wholesale partners.
