ERNYE – pink bedding floribunda rose – Márk – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cutting
Floribunda bedding rose ERNYE offers compact, spreading growth with abundant, remontant flowering that suits high-density nursery beds, standard containers and efficient, wholesale-oriented production programmes. Its pure, saturated pink, single blooms in large clusters give a clean, contemporary look for coordinated bed and border schemes where homogeneous colour plays a commercial role. Medium maintenance needs and moderate disease resistance support predictable scheduling when building retail- and project-focused ranges from 2–3 L own-root stock. The unscented, open, pollen-accessible flowers are generally considered pollinator-friendly, adding functional value for public-realm and institutional specifications. Own-root material stabilises long-term cropping, aligning with thematic rose gardens and collection-style plantings that depend on cultivar identity. Across UK production regions it performs reliably, including sites where winter and wind exposure are relevant for planning resilient nursery and landscape portfolio. As with most roses, development builds progressively—roots in the first year, structural shoots in the second, then full ornamental value from the third—supporting phased capacity planning and coordinated wholesale releases from propagation to finished plant. This tray-rooted NEONATAL base integrates smoothly into scalable networks, enabling continuous, high-volume, own-root supply for standard finished products and private-label concepts.

| Growth and structural characteristics |
Compact, bush-trained, spreading habit, 40–50 cm high, 50–70 cm spread; moderately dense, slightly glossy medium-green foliage; moderately thorny shoots, suited to bed, border and container use. |
| Flower morphology |
Single, cup-shaped, flat-opening flowers, 5–12 petals, small size 0.5–1.5 inches; borne in large, multi-flowered clusters, with abundant remontant flowering and a strong second flush in season. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Pure, saturated pink with a slightly warm tone, ARS code DP, RHS 68B–68C; buds deep pink, opening to radiant light pink, then softening to pastel as blooms mature, with moderate colour retention. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
No noticeable fragrance; classed as an unscented rose, but single, open flowers with exposed stamens are generally considered attractive to bees and other pollinating insects in mixed plantings. |
| Hip characteristics |
Moderate hip set; small, spherical orange-red hips 5–8 mm in diameter; may contribute additional seasonal interest in beds and borders without significantly diverting energy from repeat flowering. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Hardy to about −21 to −18 °C; RHS H7, Swedish zone 3, USDA 6b; moderate resistance to black spot, rust and powdery mildew, with medium maintenance and occasional plant protection recommended. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Suitable for bed, border, container and specimen use; recommended as compact, bush-trained plants in standard containers, 2–3 L target size, with own-root NEONATAL propagation base; higher-volume production potential. |
