Satin Haze® Groundcover Evers – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cutting
Groundcover production of Satin Haze® offers a uniform, densely foliated, spreading habit that closes gaps quickly for project-scale schemes where coverage and low maintenance are critical. As an ADR-certified, disease resistant cultivar with verified hardiness down to H7 / USDA 4a, it supports predictable, low-replacement mass planting in exposed UK sites, including conditions comparable to Scotland and northern England where winter and wind resilience are expected. Single, pastel pink flowers with clearly visible stamens add pollinator value across the remontant season, while sparse prickles aid handling in nursery and on‑site work. Own-root pharmaROSA® NEONATAL material provides a stable propagation base for 1.5–2 L project lines and scalable wholesale supply, moving from root establishment through shoot build-up to full ornamental performance over three seasons, ideal for landscape contractors and project-serving wholesalers.
