Easy Hiphop – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL own-root propagation material
Professional own-root Easy Hiphop supports scalable park and landscape rose production where reliable performance and identity are essential for nursery networks and public-realm supply. This compact, bush-trained form with a dense, mid-green foliage structure is well suited to standard 2–3 L containers and further grow-on, providing uniform batches for wholesale scheduling. Its vibrant, bright red, cup-shaped flowers with a clear yellow stamen ring and strong hiprose character deliver dual-season interest: repeat remontant flowering followed by abundant, bright red spherical hips that persist for cut decorative stem and hedge use. H7 hardiness (USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3) gives robust winter tolerance for UK nursery production, including colder northern areas and more exposed projects where consistent survival under winter and wind pressure is needed. Simple, single flowers with 5–12 petals are explicitly pollinator-friendly, aligning with biodiversity-focused landscape briefs common in thematic rose gardens and municipal schemes. The own-root base offers long-term stability, low replacement rates and predictable regeneration, supporting homogeneous stands in park, solitary specimen and urban green space applications. Medium maintenance needs and moderate disease resistance fit professional regimes where routine monitoring and occasional treatments are standard practice, while self-cleaning blooms simplify presentation quality at dispatch. From year 1 root establishment through year 2 shoot build-up to year 3 full ornamental expression, this cultivar integrates smoothly into standard container routes and larger 40–50 L landscape formats for collection and project delivery.

Technical cultivar profile
| Parameter |
Data |
| Name and registration |
Easy Hiphop is marketed as a park – shrub rose, also classified as shrub, cut hiprose and garden hiprose; it is sold under the current trade name Easy Hiphop – white park rose – De Ruiter. |
| Origin and breeding |
This Rosa hybrid × Rosa mariae graebneriae cross was bred and introduced by De Ruiter Innovations B.V. in the Netherlands, with commercial release in 2021 following registration the same year. |
| Growth and structural characteristics |
Bushy, compact habit reaching about 70–110 cm high and 60–100 cm spread, with dense, slightly glossy mid-green foliage and moderate prickliness, forming a coherent, easily managed park or hedge shrub canopy. |
| Flower morphology |
Single, cup-shaped flowers with 5–12 petals, in clustered inflorescences, large-sized at roughly 2.75–3.95 inches, with good self-cleaning so petals fall while the decorative hips remain clearly visible on the plant. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Flowers open in bright, uniform red (RHS 155D/155C) with a creamy whitish centre and yellow stamens, then soften to a red-pink tone; colour retention is moderate, with the red hue gradually becoming lighter and more muted. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
The cultivar offers a mild but noticeable scent with a fresh, lively character; fragrance is present without being dominant, making it suitable where colour and hips are primary but some aromatic value is appreciated. |
| Hip characteristics |
Produces abundant, bright-red spherical hips about 16–24 mm in diameter (RHS 43A), which persist decoratively after petal fall and are suitable for cut decorative branch use and extended-season ornamental interest. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Rated H7, suitable to around −21 to −18 °C (USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3), with medium disease resistance to powdery mildew, black spot and rust, and moderate heat and drought tolerance provided irrigation is available. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Recommended for parks, solitary specimens, hedges, urban green spaces and cut decorative stems, as a bush-trained compact plant in standard container production, with medium maintenance and occasional pest or disease control. |
