FABIOLA HIT® – cream-white dwarf mini rose – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL
FABIOLA HIT® offers compact own-root propagation material for high-density nursery production where uniform, patio-ready crop timing matters. As a PatioHit® miniature with remontant flowering and very double cup-shaped blooms, it supports impulse-driven, container-based ranges with consistent, long-lasting terrace appeal. The bushy, dense structure and glossy mid-green foliage give a finished plant that reads clearly at 1.5–2 L, ideal for retail and nursery-branded lines aimed at instant potted colour. Own-root architecture provides renewable crowns and stable performance under repeated cropping, reducing replacement in nursery beds and maintaining predictable batch quality. Moderate disease tolerance and H7 winter hardiness fit UK nursery and public-realm supply where robust base stock is expected across varying sites, including cooler, wind-exposed regions in Scotland and northern England. Good self-cleaning behaviour limits grooming of spent flower heads in production, keeping benches visually tidy with lower labour input. In a typical development arc, roots consolidate in year one, structural shoots build in year two, and by year three the cultivar shows its full ornamental value in compact, floriferous container specimens.

| Awards and recognition |
not provided |
| Growth and structural characteristics |
Compact, dense, bushy habit with clump-forming structure reaching about 50–60 cm in height and 35–45 cm spread; moderately prickly shoots and dense, glossy mid-green foliage create a well-filled miniature shrub form. |
| Flower morphology |
Large miniature blooms (approximately 2.75–3.95 in) that are very double with 40+ petals, cup-shaped and carried in clusters; remontant with an especially abundant second flush to maintain decorative value in containers. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Cream-white flowers with subtle lemon-yellow tint at the petal base; glossy white on opening, then matt white with only slight colour change and very good retention, remaining uniformly white with a faint pale-yellow centre in full bloom. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
Mild, understated fragrance with a soft, honeyed character; primarily ornamental rather than perfumery-oriented, with heavily double flowers that visually dominate and conceal stamens, limiting pollen availability. |
| Hip characteristics |
Formation of hips is not typical; where present, they are very small (0–4 mm diameter) and horticulturally insignificant, so the plant is effectively managed for floral rather than fruit display. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Moderate disease resistance with medium susceptibility to powdery mildew, black spot and rust; hardy to about -23 to -18 °C with RHS H7 and Swedish zone 3 ratings, suitable for USDA zone 6 and comparable UK nursery conditions. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Best suited to compact container, balcony, terrace, edging and flower-bed uses; recommended as a compact, dense bush release form with medium overall maintenance and occasional pest control under professional production. |
FABIOLA HIT® offers compact, dense, cream-white flowering on own roots, combining good self-cleaning and reliable hardiness into predictable, regenerating nursery stands that can anchor your patio rose capacity planning; please feel free to discuss volumes and timing.
