MAGYAROK NAGYASSZONYA – dark pink–yellow hybrid tea rose – Márk
This hybrid tea cultivar offers a distinctive combination of colour, form and fragrance, giving professional growers a clearly differentiated premium container option within own-root production. As pharmaROSA® NEONATAL propagation material, it arrives as a tray-grown, 3–6‑month‑old rooted cutting, ready for predictable build-up into bush-trained plants with 3–5 framework canes and a 5–7 L finished pot. Its upright habit and moderately dense, glossy dark green foliage support homogeneous stands suited to exclusive finished product positioning, particularly for nursery networks and resellers supplying thematic rose gardens and curated collections. The variety’s remontant flowering with a strong second flush, medium-strength sweet–spicy perfume and high-centred, cut-rose type buds enhance its suitability for both flower bed and premium retail channels, while own-root longevity and regenerative capacity underpin stable, low‑replacement production stands over time. With reliable heat and drought tolerance supporting consistent quality in warmer and more exposed UK situations, growers can plan capacity confidently, working with a development rhythm where roots establish in year one, the framework builds in year two and full ornamental value peaks from year three onwards. In professional propagation systems, this translates into predictability, homogeneity and credibility across larger batches when serving retail and project-based demand.
