NAGYHAGYMÁS – pink bedding floribunda rose – Márk – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL
Floribunda bedding material such as NAGYHAGYMÁS offers growers a compact, bushy habit that is easy to programme into standard-container production, with 2–3 litre formats ideally suited to retail-oriented, shrub-rose ranges. Its once-blooming, clustered flower display provides a concentrated mid-season impact valued in thematic rose gardens and collection plantings, while the soft mid-pink colour fits reliably into coordinated bed and park schemes. On own roots, this cultivar delivers long-term stability, with stands that regenerate from the base and give predictable structure year after year, supporting homogeneous crop batches and low replacement in nursery networks. Medium maintenance needs and moderate resistance suit professional sites where routine plant protection is already integrated, and its good heat and drought tolerance makes it a robust option for South-East and drier UK settings where summer conditions can be demanding. In typical development, roots establish strongly in year one, structural shoots in year two and full ornamental value from year three onwards, aligning well with planned wholesale and public-realm supply cycles.

Technical cultivar profile
| Parameter |
Data |
| Name and registration |
Current trade name: Nagyhagymás Bedding rose Márk; commercial type: flowerbed floribunda rose in the bed rose group; exhibition category shrub rose; registered cultivar name not provided. |
| Origin and breeding |
Bred by Márk Gergely in Hungary in 2004, with parentage unknown; initial distribution via PharmaRosa Ltd., Hungary, with introduction and registration years not provided in current records. |
| Growth and structural characteristics |
Bushy, compact habit reaching about 40–60 cm in height with 75–105 cm spread; moderately dense, slightly glossy mid-green foliage and moderate prickliness; weak self-cleaning so deadheading is generally required. |
| Flower morphology |
Medium-sized, cupped, double flowers with 26–39 petals, presented mainly in clustered inflorescences; non-remontant flowering pattern, producing a single main bloom period rather than repeated flushes through the season. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Soft, pure mid-pink tonal range, paler on outer petals and more vivid towards the centre; colour lightens slightly in strong sun yet remains clean; ARS code LPk, RHS 65C outer and 65D inner petal references support accurate colour matching. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
No noticeable fragrance, classified as a scentless rose; dense petal structure gives primarily visual rather than olfactory impact, with limited pollinator attraction due to reduced stamen accessibility in the double blooms. |
| Hip characteristics |
Rose hip set is expected to be low because of the double flowers; when present, hips are spherical, orange-red, typically around 7–10 mm in diameter, providing only occasional and modest autumn interest in plantings. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Moderate general disease resistance, with powdery mildew, black spot and rust all in a middle range; hardiness corresponds to RHS H4, Swedish zone 1 and USDA 9a, tolerating approximately -7 to -4 °C under normal conditions. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Recommended for flowerbeds, parks, specimen and hedge use and urban green spaces; medium maintenance requiring occasional plant protection; best produced as bush-trained plants in standard containers, with 2–3 litre pots suggested. |
