PLANTEN UN BLOMEN® – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cutting
Reliable own‑root production of PLANTEN UN BLOMEN® gives nurseries a compact, upright floribunda base that aligns smoothly with standard 2–3 L container routes and retail‑grade bed rose programmes. This Klima‑Rosen® cultivar’s proven ADR‑level field performance and UK trial recognition support long‑term, low‑complaint stocking for show gardens and collection‑style municipal beds, while the brick‑red and creamy reverse bicolour offers clear differentiation inside broader bedding ranges. On own roots, the crop develops a dependable arc – first year rooting, second year framework, third year full ornamental value – underpinning homogeneous stands with low replacement and predictable capacity. Hardy to H7/USDA 5b and suited to conditions where winter wind and exposure are common, it is easy to integrate into nursery propagation beds and rolling availability schedules. Semi‑double, cluster‑flowering heads give consistent visual impact in retail and project plantings, while the robust dark green foliage and moderate maintenance profile support sustainable, repeatable quality across large‑scale professional plantings.

| Awards and recognition |
ADR Award 2009; Silver Medals at Kortrijk 2010 and Baden bei Wien 2009; Golden Rose Den Haag 2010; Trial Ground Certificate St Albans 2009; Paris Award 2010, supporting proven landscape value. |
| Growth and structural characteristics |
Upright, compact bush‑trained shrub reaching about 70–95 cm high and 40–60 cm wide; moderately thorny shoots; dense, dark green, slightly glossy foliage providing good visual cover in beds. |
| Flower morphology |
Semi‑double, medium‑sized cup‑shaped blooms with about 17–25 petals, produced in clusters; strongly remontant with abundant second flush, though spent flowers require manual deadheading due to weak self‑cleaning. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Bright red base colour with creamy‑white petal reverse; fiery red newly opened blooms shift to brick‑red centres, then fade moderately with an orange‑rosy edge; colour retention generally very good under strong sun. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
No noticeable fragrance; categorised as a scentless rose; semi‑double form and moderate stamen exposure mean limited pollinator attraction, so it is only limitedly pollinator‑friendly in mixed plantings. |
| Hip characteristics |
Produces hips only occasionally; small ovoid fruits about 6–10 mm in diameter, red when ripe; not a primary ornamental feature but may appear sporadically on established plants. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Hardy to approximately −26 to −23 °C (RHS H7, USDA 5b, Swedish Zone 4); moderate resistance to powdery mildew and black spot, resistant to rust; tolerates heat well with moderate watering during dry spells. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Suited to flower beds, containers, park plantings and limited cut use; maintenance medium with occasional plant protection and deadheading; recommended as bush‑trained compact plants in standard containers, 2–3 L target pots. |
