Jacomo Bedding rose pharmaROSA® – NEONATAL own-root propagation material
Jacomo as a compact floribunda bedding rose offers reliability for professional programmes that require uniform own-root blocks for ongoing container production and flower bed projects; its bushy, upright habit and medium-density foliage support structure in standard container lines, while remontant, cluster-flowered, double blooms with a clear, sweet, orange-peach fragrance add impact to retail-driven ranges. Working from tray-rooted, 3–6‑month‑old NEONATAL cuttings gives predictable planning for nursery beds and 2–3 L routes, and the own-root platform underpins long-term stability with renewable growth and lower replacement over time. This suits UK nursery and public‑realm suppliers who need dependable, repeatable ornamentals for thematic rose gardens and curated collections, even where winters and wind demand robust planting, while the typical development from root establishment in year one, vegetative build-up in year two and full ornamental expression by year three supports disciplined scheduling and capacity management across integrated wholesale networks.
