MORGANIT – salmon-pink park rose - pharmaROSA® NEONATAL
Salmon-pink blooms with a rosette form and medium, fruity fragrance make Morganit a distinctive own-root option for nursery propagation beds and standard container routes, where the upright, bushy 70–120 cm framework and dense mid-green foliage support reliable, premium-finish shrub specimens. Its remontant, generously repeating flowering and medium maintenance profile with black-spot resistant foliage lend themselves to stable, low-replacement blocks supplying retail and reseller channels focused on reliable garden performance. Across UK nursery networks, Morganit aligns well with public-realm and thematic rose garden projects in areas needing dependable winter and wind tolerance in exposed sites, while the own-root form offers a predictable development arc from root establishment in year one through structural build in year two to full ornamental value in year three, underpinning long-term collection and portfolio planning on a wholesale scale for professional growers seeking stability in capacity and scheduling.

Fresh, fruity fragrance of medium strength, offering a clearly noticeable scent without being overpowering; full double form limits nectar access, so pollinator attraction remains relatively modest. |
